If you're paying hundreds, you're getting ripped off. The full CC suite is $55/month

But that's not the point.

The point is that we dislike Adobe and we don't want to deal with them in any context.

So feels not reals?

No the point is that adobe has shitty business practices and their software is also bloated and crappy and has done fuck all to make my life as a designer easier in the past decade.

The fact that overwhelming amount of designers switched over to figma in the past few years, proves that how people feel about adobe is very real.

Personally I am never thrilled to switch software and endure initial period of relearning how to do my job in a new tool unless there are measurable advantages.

I ve used adobe products since the age of 12 and not having to install their crappy software on any computer since 2019 has been liberating af

If you want to frame it that way.

We have learned experience being hurt by Adobe. Ignoring that would be silly.
