Adobe Firefly Review
Firefly's real strength isn't just image quality, it's how well it fits into a workflow that already runs through Photoshop and Illustrator. That matters a lot for working designers who don't want to hop between apps.nnGenerative Fill in particular has become a genuine time-saver, not just a gimmick. It's less about wild, artsy results and more about being a practical tool you can actually use in real client work.
Is Adobe Firefly better than Midjourney?
Adobe Firefly integrates directly into Photoshop and other Creative Cloud tools, making it far more convenient for designers already in that ecosystem, while Midjourney generally produces a more distinctive artistic style for standalone image generation.
