Running a food channel and I used to do thumbnails in Photoshop. Switched to Canva about a year ago and haven’t looked back.
– Background remover is good enough for food shots
– I keep one template per series so the channel looks consistent
– Brand kit keeps fonts and colors the same across Pins, Shorts covers and thumbnails
– Resize to other formats in a click
Free plan works but the background remover and brand kit need Pro. Worth it if you post a lot.
