core usability and function of the software is not what it used to be

I have been a user of Adobe products for a number of years. I don't know what's happening at Adobe as an organisation, but I feel the core usability and function of the software is not what it used to be. I feel sometimes to much has been put into the software over the years. I hate to say it but, sometimes is starting to feel like Mircosoft software or the old Microsoft paperclip will suddenly appear making suggetions lol. Don't get me wrong I love the product and what is able to be achieved... but lately I feel it's just update after update and dialogue boxes, or auto suggestions on task or tools that are just not relevent. I would be intrested to know how many of the orginal developers still work at Adobe and what is the foundation or drive for making changes to this software. My feeling a KISS approach is needed urgently. Look forward to a response.
