Also I just noticed that if you go to their website the way they market Photoshop is so depressing. Not a single thing aimed at artists, it's all catered towards businesses.
“For your BUSINESS! FOR YOUR BUSINESS!”
That’s honestly something I noticed too. So many services simply assume you’re a business owner. There is nothing left that’s by working class, for working class.
It’s disgusting that Adobe knows it’s a Monopoly and then decides “nah, we’re a luxury product now! No poors allowed!”
On top it all, the only reason Photoshop is famous is because of artists. They pay them back by ignoring them as a customer base as shilling the same AI that steals from artists.
Marx has to have a vocabularly term for this, porky really does sell people back their own services.
The only reason social media makes money is because of the content artists share, youtube videos made, things like that. Yeah, you can monetize it but there's still a lot of enshittification that happens regardless
A more blatant example should be the housing crisis, especially in cities. The reason San Francisco rent is so high is because of the people of San Francisco, who have made such a place so valuable by their labor, amenities, culture, and also not being as racist as Texas. They're literally getting punished for their "services" being so valuable.
