They’re also the company who mainstreamed the software subscription model.

It used to be that only services required subscriptions. Applications would be a one time payment. But, Adobe converted to the subscription model and because they hold a monopoly over the design space, people/companies had no choice but to go along. Once they were successful, every business in the world decided that they also wanted that sweet monthly payment and now software licensing sucks.

I refuse to even pirate Adobe products on principle.

TL;DR Fuck Adobe, use open source.
