Those team portraits are so damn good. Wow.

I've started using Things for project management/to-dos and note-taking (and I love it) + a few internal tools that I'm required to use.

Photography + using said photography in side design projects, such as album art and posters

Curious what you mean specifically by "noise". I know on the main feed there are ads and the like, but I find my profile to be quite easy to organize and generally feels very visually clean and satisfying compared to other options. That's my opinion though, as is the case with visual / graphic design, it's subjective.

Not everything posted on Dribbble is or has to be UI / UX btw ... just saying.

GMUNK has some amazing infrared photography, all in pretty high-res that I've been using lately.

There is also Adobe XD, which I believe will get better over time. Seems to be a solid Sketch replacement for use on Windows.
