Adobe is shitty.

I only get lightroom in a abo which would be fine if the minimum time would be a month but it is a year.

Best if both worlds for Adobe non for the consumer

If you work with a broad range of their softwares (ps/ai/ae/premiere power user here) the subscription system is awesome. Ends up being cheaper than buying it used to be & much less upfront costs for the business.

They could do better on many aspects but it's nowhere near "shitty".

Hello Adobe marketing team.

Adobe replaced 600usd a piece software for 80usd subscription. The reason for it was because most people use like two pieces and upgraded once in 5+ years. Why? Because there are essentially no new features that have any value. Especially in print industry its basically ransom thanks to adobe's complete monopoly.

Btw it's not even monthly subscription. You can only get 1year contract that you pay of month by month. If you decide stop after two months you gotta pay rest of that 960usd. Lovely.
