Or, he chose to go with the software he had bought instead of moving to Adobe's new model of software as a service, where you pay a subscription fee plus an up front cost to use their software. It isn't so easy as "choosing not to upgrade to 64 bit" when the production company makes untenable demands. At this point, it's almost better struggling through with GIMP and Inkscape (almost) than dealing with the corporate hellscape that Adobe has become.
- na85 7y agoThat's kind of the point, isn't it? Instead of directing one's ire at Apple or any other OS vendor for dropping 32-bit support, why not get upset at Adobe for creating a SaaS hellscape in the first place?
- kibibu 7y agoIn the Adobe case, fine. What if people have 32 bit software where the vendor has gone out of business?
- na85 7y agoPerhaps it's time for them to invest in alternative software, or change to a legacy OS, or just simply not update to Catalina.
