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.

    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.

    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

    Wow. Before, I could use it with no issues, but then recently, it would just randomly log me out (even on Chrome), so I had to use the app on the Microsoft Store. (Which I’m pretty sure is just a web browser)

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

    Adobe needs to fuck off and die already. Lots of bad business practices like the subscription model were popularized by them.

      Unfortunately they’re still a default app in the business world. Basically everyone at least uses Reader if only because it’s what people expect when they open a PDF.

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