Fuck Adobe, not supporting Linux, and now not even supporting Firefox, the once most used browser? Whoever pirates their crappy software deserves a statue.

"Whoa there!"

Go fuck yourself with that fellow kids corporate speak. That pisses me off so much, way more than it probably should.

Any software company that uses monthly subscriptions as their business model can fuck right off. Let us own what we buy.

Are we surprised that Adobe is doing this? Adobe is exactly who I would've suspected adapting this bullshit immediately.

This is the main issue with that web DRM "security" shit that Google is trying to push. They have such a great market share now that big websites can now afford to put a check "only for Chrome" losing a very small percentage of users

As another comment suggests, try to change your user-agent. Chameleon is great.

Try using this: User-Agent Switcher and Manager

Not supporting Firefox is WAY down the list of crimes Adobe has committed against their customers. I’m not all surprised by this post

There isn't anything that Adobe charges money for that you can't find an open source alternative.

I will recommend GIMP or Krita usage even more

Are you kidding - they basically invented the problem. They were one of the first to move to the "rent your software" model way back when

www.photopea.com

Adobe, a company which developed nothing but just bought off 3rd party software by acquiring the actual developing company, and stitched everything together somehow, like a Frankenstein's Creature, and finally sold it as a service.

Thank you, but no thank you.

Same applies for Autodesk.

This is also the company that charges you to cancel your membership. Like, 60 bucks or something, sometimes more, to stop using their product. Horrible company. Bloatware, laggy software anyways.

I've refused to use Adobe for a while because of their bullshit. Their main product I care about is Lightroom, but Darktable is a perfectly fine replacement for it

They're not part of the problem. They're the problem.

Time for #abode , I want to believe ;)

Krita for paint, Affinity for publisher and photoshop (this one has a one time cost) and blender for after effects and 3d.

Edit; Gimp for photoshop and it's free. I haven't used it in a decade because the UI was so bad, but it might have improved by now.

Fuck Adobe. As an industry professional I have to use multiple offerings from them, and they have ALL gotten worse, rather than better. It all started going downhill when they started their bullshit subscription-only model.

I have been removing Adobe from my life starting way back with Flash, long before it was discontinued. Then Acrobat and the final thing to go was when I switched to Affinity Photo and Designer and ditched Photoshop. It works every bit as well for me but I never was a Photoshop power user. For a long time the only company that showed up when I searched online to see if my email had been pwned was of course Adobe and that was over a decade ago.

So, you can't use adobe with a widely-used and -accepted browser, you must use one of the notoriously unscrupulous and anti-privacy tech giants' browsers. Nothing worrying there! /s Also, more of "Bullshit As Usual" from adobe

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.
