Stop Forcing Changes

@amERICax777 again, the only people you'll frustrate here are the volunteer moderators and community members who bother enough to read your rant. Keep on this path and your posts will just be static.

Participating in a constructive discussion will get you further than childish taunts and brinksmanshiup.

@amERICax777 I think what @melissapiccone meant was Adobe doesn't pay attention to rants.

Giving detailed issue descriptions and idea iterations gets you further than your original post.

Example - the zoom feature. What about it make it so much worse? The animated zoom?

As for core features across all apps - thats been discussed heavily over the years with slow progress. No excuses.

But to say that Adobe isn't listening to user feedback is absolutely 100% false.

Example - shortcuts - Adobe did have some forethought by adding checkboxes to use Legacy shortcuts where applicable.

and in preferences you can choose to retain certain aspects as Legacy.

Both of these were due to feedback from users when beta testing new features.

@amERICax777 

If you bothered to go through Photoshop Preferences, everything is there and this rant wouldn't be necessary.

I pay $60+ every month. Don't change the functionality and placement of my black and white keys. It's up to Adobe and the Community to identify those. I'll update every time because that's what I pay for. I also pay for a release that is bug free. Use that money to hire more testers create more jobs, less profit...how profit do you really need Adobe? If I frustrate you with my frustratation, maybe I have a valid point.

The idea: Make a list of untouchable features, functions, shortcuts, update the list throughout the life of the software and don't touch them. The core fanbase will only boil with frustration. 

This is what you get when I'm frustrated with no option to edit. Coherency suffers along with spelling. I posted this in ideas. To say Adobe isn't listening is sad. I believe you are right, because if they were, a long time user wouldn't be so frustrated with them. So here I am making incoherent, misspelled statements.  Where do I post so they can hear me? That may be my core issue, they aren't listening. I provided two examples, two straws that broke the camel's back...don't get fixated on them. 

Going back to the piano example there are black keys and there are white keys on every piano. If the creator changed placement or functionality of those keys, for long time users then discontent would rise. The point or the idea I'm proposing is identify the black and white keys in Adobe and don't change them.

I'll give you another example the Zoom feature... (cursing removed) could they make that any worse? It should be the same across all Adobe products...nope. Maybe the idea should be more user testing.    

@amERICax777 easy solution - no one is forcing you to upgrade your Photoshop.

Stay on the version you like. 

Do not pass go, do not collect $200, turn off auto updates and do not upgrade.

Your rant is not helpful or coherent. This forum is for peer to peer help. We are users, just like you - "Adobe" isn't listening or reading. You don't have to hold shift to resize unless you want to change the aspect ratio. No idea what you are on about with artboards. Turn off the tooltips and control lots of other things in the preferences. 

If you have real issues that need to be solved, please post them and we can give you solutions.
