Each software or tool, it is for a specific task and not for everything ! (that’s my thinking).
Exactly and that’s really what I’ve been getting at too.
Every tool has its place. The problem comes when someone tries to use the wrong tool for a task just because it’s free, or trendy, or because it worked once in another context.
Sure, you can edit video in Photoshop if you really want to, but why would you when Premiere exists? Same goes for design. Scribus, GIMP, Inkscape they each have their strengths. But if a job requires CMYK precision, Pantone libraries, prepress control, or full-blown workflow integration with printers and teams.
There’s zero shame in starting with free tools. I think we all did in some way. But as the jobs get more complex and the expectations higher, the software needs to scale with the work. Use the right tool for the job, exactly. That’s the golden rule.

That’s the way that I think, and I never enter to discuss with anyone everywhere. But I am still think that every small tool even it is very insignificant, it can do a great things !
