what is the best software for T-shirt and print design when you need print-ready files?

i’m doing more t-shirt and print design work and want to tighten up my workflow from the initial artwork through to the final file.

the main thing i care about is being able to create clean artwork, work with vectors when needed, and export files that are ready for actual production. different printers seem to have their own requirements, so having good control over the artwork and exports matters more to me than having a bunch of extra design features.

for people who do t-shirt or print work regularly, what software has worked well for you? especially interested in what you use when the artwork needs to go from design to a print-ready file without a lot of cleanup afterward.

best lg fridge deals right now? trying to surprise my mom with her first new fridge after my first paycheck

got my first salary and want to get my mom a new fridge since ours is dying (leaking, weird noises, barely cooling) and she keeps saying "it's fine" but i want to just handle it.

leaning lg since the linear inverter ones seem solid long term, probably french door/counter-depth. budget's around $1,200, based in the US.

anyone know where the best lg fridge deals are right now? actual store sales/bundles/markdowns, not spammy affiliate links. also open to model recommendations if you've bought one recently. trying to get this right since it's a surprise 🙏

what are the best capcut templates that don’t look overused?

i am trying to find some clean templates to use for my videos, but every time i open the trending tab, it feels like the exact same five options are being recycled everywhere. it is getting really frustrating because a lot of those popular templates are super aggressive with flashing lights, loud audio cuts, or memes that everyone is already tired of seeing. instead of making my content look better, using them just makes it feel generic and lazy.

i really want to find templates that are more minimal and professional, like smooth cinematic transitions or clean typography setups that do not scream that they were made in a template. i know there are some really talented creators making high quality layouts inside the app, but they always get buried under the viral stuff. i am wondering if there are specific search terms or creators i should be looking up to find these hidden gems.

People who travel often, which budget airline is secretly the best and why?

I travel a few times a year mostly for work and I always end up going back and forth on which budget carrier to actually book with. The price difference between them seems small but the experience can be really different depending on the route.

I've had some flights that were way better than expected and others that were a total mess even on the same airline. Things like legroom, on-time performance, hidden fees, and how they handle delays matter a lot more to me now than just the base ticket price. I feel like there's always one airline that flyers swear by but nobody talks about enough.

▲ 44 r/Hobbies

I’ve been feeling pretty burned out lately and realized I don’t really have anything in my life that actually helps me unwind.

Most of my days are just work, scrolling, and trying to catch up on sleep, and I can feel it starting to affect my mood and energy. I want to find something simple I can do regularly that helps me slow down and not feel so mentally cluttered. Ideally something low pressure that doesn’t require a ton of skill to get into right away.

I’ve tried things like gaming and watching shows, but they don’t really leave me feeling relaxed after.

What’s the most relaxing hobby you’ve ever tried?
