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.

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.

Their billing has been shady as fuck for two decades. This company is the worst.

Good, users like you are the reason ransomware happens. Fucking update your shit. Windows 7 isn't secure anymore.

How do you know he wasn't using Linux?

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

"Held off" doesn't really sound like he switched from one to another, just like he's holding out on updating the OS.

@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

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.

Looked it up and apparently its for tiktoks and AI. So, youre not missing out on much.

Hear hear. If you make the mistake of subscribing to Adobe canceling is like pulling teeth. Can't stand them as a company.

Its a clear sign they feel threatened. Their fall is near.
