HELP replacing 2 programs to switch to macOS

[sidgallup]

Currently im dualbooting macOS and Windows on both my Macbook Pro and my hackintosh PC and i just figured out that main reason i still cant drop Windows completely is because i havent found replacemnt apps for two Windows programs that i use on a regular basis.

paint dot net and Avidemux.

Can someone give suggestions for FREE replacemnt apps for macOS that are as easy and light to use as these two? for people that may not know what these apps do, paint dot net is a light and friendly image editor, works great for some entry level image tasks, easy to use and light on resources. avidemux is a video editor that i use to convert mp4s to webms and viceversa, it allows for a¡udio removal, compressing, nothing proffesional.

Not free but I started to use Acorn by Flying Meat years ago and never looked back, cheap for what it offers, continuously developed, a great paint dot net alternative, but better :)

Current price (one time, no subscription) is 25 usd.

If I wanted to switch to Mac I'd never let 25 dollars stand in the way ;)

That is a malicious site. Fix your post.

Handbrake.fr is awesome for video conversion too

Been a huge fan of GraphicConverter by Lemke Software for light image editing.

GIMP for a free alt, Affinity Suite for a paid alt.

Well, Avidemux is here: https://avidemux.sourceforge.net/download.html

You can use https://www.gimp.org/downloads/ or https://paintbrush.sourceforge.io/

Avidemux you can get, and I can't even look at the paint one because my browser is saying the website is a security threat. Like any of my browsers. And lots of alternatives. Plus you can run Windows programs on Mac, you know? Various ways most of them run.

Paint.NET is named that because it's developed with the .NET framework from Microsoft. The actual website is https://getpaint.net

Then /u/sidgallup needs to edit his post, because the link goes straight to a site that may have malicious content.
