My feature idea is to shut down Firefly and move those resources over to resuscitating and modernizing Animate.

Basically, I don’t think Firefly is creatively enabling so much as it is an affront to craft, a threat to creators, and a creative dead end. And it’s apparently sucking up enough resources to kill other apps that are more important to me, like Animate. What would a world look like with a modernized, beast-mode Adobe Animate bringing imaginative and full-featured character animation capabilities to the masses? Instead, we’re getting funneled into a system of dependency on wishy-washy algorithmic lamp-rubbing.

I’m personally switching to Toon Boom Harmony and will end my subscription with Adobe as soon as my assets are moved. I’ll be finding a Photoshop alternative as well, as it hasn’t been keeping up with competitors. Adobe, move your resources toward the software we subscribed for or you may not be around in 5 years’ time.
