Adobe fonts in non-adobe applications
Yeah, I find the recent changes to the Adobe Fonts service to be pretty annoying. Usually I would browse for fonts at the Adobe Fonts website and activate the ones I wanted to use and deactivate others I was no longer using just within the website. The web site still sorts of works that way as long as one is only using Adobe applications. The new "add family" button only syncs the fonts with Adobe CC applications. If someone wants to use Adobe Fonts in other applications not made by Adobe that user has to open the Adobe CC desktop app, go to the Fonts section in that app and click the "install family" button. That's an annoying extra step.
Here's a bigger problem. The fonts list within the Adobe CC desktop app is not well organized. If I want to "install" a whole type family I should only need to click one "install family" button. Instead I'm seeing some typefaces show "install family" buttons for every style. Rig Solid and Rig Shaded are two examples I'm seeing right now (lots of individual styles of both with "install family" buttons for every font file). Even just browsing the fonts within the CC app is a pain. It's pretty cumbersome to collapse and expand the view of fonts in a long list (especially if a bunch of separate styles within a type family are treated as if they're separate type families on their own). I find it easier to browse fonts at the Adobe Fonts web site than in the CC app.
