So tired of Adobe. They're part of the problem.

I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until Adobe, and therefore my job, required it. Now this nonsense. I hope this isn't the start of them joining on the web DRM bandwagon.

I don't understand why Adobe was allowed to survive as a company when Flash player had like 500 security vulnerabilities daily.

Because many companies and users were deliberately turned into illiterates about tech by big tech

When were they ever tech literate?

I guess the first step is to ask yourself about the services that you use daily , this was my first step to understand the importance of free software and all correlate topics but each person will have its own pathway to literation.

Because marketing people wanted animatios.

Users wanted games to play, too. Couldn't do that in HTML4

They bought all competition for their creative suite. They werent "allowed" to survive, they made sure they were the only viable game in town and locked businesses into contracts.

Because the folks doing the work aren’t the folks paying the bills. You’ve gotta invade some country and exploit the shit out of them for several years if you expect to have enough money to have a voice!
