And then you get bankrupted by the excorbitant creative cloud license costs.

I remember the first time I ever saw that video was when I tried playing Enter the Gungeon. I didn't even pirate it. I just screwed up when I was installing some mods lol

!piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com (Does not work for lemmy.world users)

Also: Doesn't GIMP also do the same thing?

And this is why I switched away from .world

lemmy.world has a mental health community that used to not allow posts mentioning suicide. Yes, a mental health community. Like wtf man. They only changed the rules because I made a meme criticizing that rule.

Yup. Adobe may not be the ones causing the housing crisis, but all this nickel and diming from other sources is part of the problem too.

Hey Adobe, if you want people to stop pirating your shit go back to a pay-once model or lower your subscription costs. Then maybe use some of that money you’ve got to help us out over here so we can afford to pay you.
