Sure, but *saves money to leave them, and sends a much stronger message. Your feedback? That's called consulting. That's something people pay for. They've already committed to abandoning creatives. This is only the last straw, they haven't earned your insights, and they haven't paid for them either.

3/2 because Adobe doesn't care if the things being made with their programs are any good. They care about endless growth and greed, and selling to your clients is a larger pool of customers than selling to creatives. The answer isn't to fill out their survey, the answer is to leave them.

2/2 adobes recent string of shitty tutorial adverts have one goal in mind: make Photoshop look easy to use, to sell the idea that having the program is the same thing as being an artist or designer. Like trying to sell the idea that phone cameras makes your mom a photographer. (One more addition>)

Look, fill out the Adobe survey if it makes you feel better, but let's be clear: they don't care what you think. Not because of any pessimistic assessment, but rather because you, fellow artists, comrades, are not their target customer anymore. Your clients are. They want to supplant creatives. 1/2

Wild watching Target, Amazon, WalMart, etc., roll back prices like they're expecting us to think they're heroes when all it really means is that they've been gouging their customers for years.

Jeeze good luck with Import taxes. Good luck with infrastructure, good luck with all those domestic contracts the federal government can't outsource to a sovereign nation. Good luck getting dual citizenship to visit your family in union states. put short, secession is a slogan, not a serious policy.

The funny thing about the occasional news of Texas trying to secede from the union is they largely think that business would be 'as-usual' but they wouldn't have to listen to us. Nah. Good luck "securing your border" without federal aid. Good luck doing a customs check to travel one state over.
