Yeah don't get me started on Adobe. But I guess I should thank them for opening my eyes to exactly how bad SaaS really is with their ransomware. Sorry, I mean Creative Cloud subscriptions. Thanks to them I'm trying to move to FOSS as much as possible, but when you're talking about alternatives for advanced top tier commercial software, and sometimes hardware... It's a barren landscape thus far. And I'm putting a hopeful emphasis on thus far.
