Gumroad
I use GumRoad & it's so easy to use + the branding is so fun. The only thing that would level up GumRoad is if they had a partnership with a shipping company so you could print auto-generated shipping labels.

WordPress
The stability and reliability of WordPress are significant advantages, as they ensure that websites function optimally and consistently. The platform's commitment to regular updates and enhancements is also commendable, contributing to its ongoing relevance and effectiveness in the digital landscape.

Other times, it is quite bizarre to find oneself unable to achieve certain qualities in the images prompted. The content filters are also frustrating especially when it comes to what gets flagged as inappropriate in the use of source images input via weblink. I understand the reasons that theoretically support this overly wide content filtering but I do not see it getting more accurate as it is claimed will happen over time by the devs.

I recently tried out OpenAi‘s AI text classifier and was very impressed with the results. It worked 19 out of the 20 times I used it to determine whether text was written by AI or me. The accuracy of this tool was remarkable. I give it a 5 star review! It was easy to use, provided accurate results, and was incredibly helpful. And it is FREE!

Adobe Photoshop
The brush engine in Photoshop is one of the most robust I've ever encountered. The ability to customize brushes down to the finest detail, or to import and create my own, gives me an incredible amount of creative flexibility. I can simulate a wide variety of traditional media effects, which is something that other digital design tools often fall short on. Layer management in Photoshop is also exceptional. With blending modes, layer styles, and adjustment layers, I have endless possibilities to manipulate and tweak my illustrations. It enables me to experiment without the fear of making irreversible changes.

Canva
As a marketer, many "design" assets need to be created quickly, and this tool allows non-designers to get the job done well with enough tools to make things look polished. I personally love all the templates that are basically plug-and-play, with an ever-changing library.

What's great

Some features take time to understand, especially for beginners. Prices are quite affordable, but perhaps there could be more flexible package options. Support for some currencies is still limited, hopefully it can be expanded in the future. I wish there were more font choices to make the page look more unique.
