I will never ever be an Adobe customer again.

Sorry, I wasn't negging the deal. Its a good deal if you use Adobe.
I was just posting to warn people that Adobe is very predatory with their pricing.
yeah i know, bought photoshop once and got charged for 3 other apps the month after? didnt let me cancel without paying a years worth
i used to pay 22 for almost 6/7 years for this deal. then got the turkey one, for 10$/month. those days are gone. bye bye adobe. in next 2 years you will be almost extinct
I remember when there was a free Adobe Acrobat for all users and a 'Professional' version for publishing. Now users only get the (extremely) crippled Adobe Reader software.
Adobe - as always - got greedy.
yeah, acrobat was perfect being free, though money's always the need i guess
Acrobat was never free. Acrobat Reader has always been free (and still is).
Earlier versions of the 'free' Acrobat (Reader app) had far more functionality - it was Adobe's way to get more and more people to adopt the Portable Document Format as a standard.
oh, must've been hallucinating lmao, istg it was free
I been using PDF X from the Microsoft store instead of adobe. 1 time payment of around $75 for lifetime full access. Does most of what adobe does and probably more. And licence allows installation of upto 10 computers if you login to your Microsoft account on each computer and download and install it. It's been awesome so far, some things it is abit buggy but overall has been awesome especially compared to adobe. And you aren't paying Yearly subscription crap. Set it up at work and everyone loves it.
Bummer - Windows only… I'm on MAC.
I wonder what the fine print is regarding "lifetime full access".
I bought Microsoft Office 2000 Professional - physical CDs back on Windows NT/Me.
Then I had to do so again about three years later - the newer version had made big improvements, but the primary reason for the change was that I had bought a new Windows XP computer and Microsoft demanded you need a new licence for a new machine.
The definition of a new machine back then was three changes or upgrades to your system! After upgrading my monitor, RAM and adding a graphics card I started getting messages that my copy of Office was unlicenced! Eventually I got that resolved with Microsoft, but by the time Windows 7 came out I had started getting incessant prompts to upgrade to the latest Office and purchase a 365 subscription.
And then support got dropped, the program started getting buggy and painfully slow.
Drone "We still have 30 million users on our 5 year old lifetime licenced software. What should we do boss?"
Boss: "Add more bugs and add a random delay to most actions"
How does this deal work?
i pirated premiere pro and i got a notif saying get genuine products
got the link and dropped it here
worked for 2 ppl already
first month is a trial i think then next month on is the discounted price
Well amazing marketing strategy. Someone is getting a raise by getting the customers to hand over their balls. No thanks. EAD Adobe.
I've been using Affinity for about 4 months now after 30 years using Photoshop and then Illustrator. There's definitely a learning curve, and adapting to a different approach to certain problems takes some getting used to. There are also a few tools that I will confess that I miss. But some things are slicker in Affinity (I love being able to toggle between Vector andPixel) and the software definitely feels more solid and in sync with Mac routines. I'm not going back.
Imagine paying $24/month to edit PDFs
hahahahahahaha adobe thinks we eat grass eater goat
🏴☠️
FYI: If you have access to an @schools or @education email then Adobe's free.
not every school and uni, tho.
My sister's a teacher in QLD and can't get it for free.
Pdf xchange editor is paid under $100 one time payment and does everything acrobat pro does (windows only)
F Adobe
Switch to Vanced version of lightroom. Thanks Adobe
I got canned by the ANU last year but finally got a new grant so hopefully will get it free again.
If Steve Jobs is still alive, Adobe would have disappeared by now, still selling the same old software and greedy
Goodness. Such a huge statement - how did you work that one out?
I'm good, bought Davinci Resolve Studio from Videopro for $445. I needed the extra features studio has but free does the job.
If you just want to edit inkscape is capable, can also replace illustrator for a lot of vector work.
do you think adobe will be the next nokia?
nah, I'm good.
