Hello,
Is there any ethical (Privacy focused) alternative to Canva ?
Edit : Especially for slides creation :)
As Canva is sharing your data and is going to stock exchange this year, I feel very urgent to move out of this service.
Best, H

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

For slides you can use Impress or Reveal.js
markdown > pandoc > reveal.js is easy, depends on what you're doing graphics-wise in your slides
(I use LaTeX Beamer slides made with pandoc, but they're not flashy)
Another option could be Inkscape which can make multipage documents. You can even animate them using jessyink.
An added benefit of moving away from Canva will be the colourspace. Canva doesn't use CMYK (might have upgraded since the last time I checked). Making your slides with other software will make them print using the right colours.
