I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until my job required it. Now this nonsense. I hope this isn't the start of them joining on the web DRM bandwagon.
Anyone linking that also need to be linking the FTC. Adobe forwards all communication from the web compact to the bin, with disdain.
I’d seriously consider if your task can be accomplished with any other software. Personally I find LibreOffice Draw to be a perfectly adequate Adobe Acrobat Pro replacement for most situations. I know everyone has a different workflow though.
This is exactly why I switched from Photoshop to Affinity. It's just as good and somewhat even better than PS and it's a one time purchase forever. I will never look back.
I miss the days of Creative Suite. You know, when you can just buy the thing once and do whatever you want with it for the rest of your life?
I actually miss the days of Macromedia even more. Those round icons with the weird typography are just timeless. Especially the Flash logo.
Although this isn't convenient. You could always file an issue on WebCompat to fix this.
Thank God I never had to learn any Adobe products, one of the most anti-consumer companies out there.

Good, users like you are the reason ransomware happens. Fucking update your shit. Windows 7 isn't secure anymore.
@c0mbatbag3l @jeena Or just stop using MS products. They build in backdoors just for criminals anyway.
Adobe has been a constant frustration for me. I was having issues with Acrobat DC on Windows 10 and ended up having to uninstall the 64 bit version and installing the legacy 32 bit version in its place.
I want to use something else for PDF editing but our company refuses to consider alternatives.
I love how on most sites it works with a user agent switcher
That part makes me so mad. I get it if its a "Firefox doesn't support all the webgl features chrome does" problem, but when its just "we said so, that's why" its just absolute total bullshit
Their billing has been shady as fuck for two decades. This company is the worst.
Always have been. All along the way there's been an issue on sites or software and Adobe has been there
I was really hoping that the current AI tool revolution would finally kick Adobe off but with them buying Figma (which shouldn't have been allowed by anti trust in the first place) I don't see that happening yet. One day though.
Hear hear. If you make the mistake of subscribing to Adobe canceling is like pulling teeth. Can't stand them as a company.
Looked it up and apparently its for tiktoks and AI. So, youre not missing out on much.
