It's so fucked up though. Just because Adobe has existed for a long time and managed to squeeze their existing customers enough, they been able to stop innovating. And instead of innovating enough to be able to beat their competition (Figma), they'll just buy the competition and continue doing the same thing. Until another competitor appears, rinse-and-repeat.
- ryanSrich 4y agoI’m definitely less anti-acquisition than most of HN. I think bigger companies buying new startups and smaller companies is a fine growth strategy. However, in this case, I have to agree. Adobe buying any product is essentially the death of said product.
