List of Alternatives to Adobe Programs

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I don't know what those two letters mean. I wish they had written out the name. I've avoided buying Adobe stuff because it's stupidly expensive, but I'm still aware that in some industries, some of these have been industry standards at one point or another. Being able to tell wtf their names are, or even what they do would be helpful.
Some are easy, I'll share the ones I know
Ps = Photoshop
Id = InDesign
Pr = Premiere
Ae = After Effects
Dw = Dreamweaver
I don't know what Xd stands for, because everyone just calls is Xd but it is UI/UX design like figma and sketch. Ai is confusing but they use it for (Adobe) Illustrator, possible they thought
Il
would be more confusing
