The Adobe Color Themes panel is being removed! (July 2021)

Hello, I can see that the Adobe Color Themes panel is being removed from the Creative Suite this month (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign). There is no explanation or details online, is it being replaced with something else? Is it being implemented in another panel or will the feature disappear completely? Why would it be removed? Could someone please give more information?

    This is due to a ramification of a technical limitation the panel faces. Adobe will be bringing the creative tools back into applications by integrating them in the Libraries panel in the future.

    I agree - this is so annoying as I use this often and its not very practical to leave the application go search for a palette and then save to your library. Cant you get rid of something else if you don't have room?

        what technical limitation the panel faces? how can there be a tech limitation? That is not a very good answer at all. The Adobe Color Themes panel was added in the first place. I'm reading people use it all the time. Why take it away? Why not leave it, and improve it? 

         

        Once again what technical limitation is there. How can there be one in the first place. 

         

        Remember Adobe shouldnt' be like Microsoft and just do things the customers do not want. We are paying for this cloud service in the first place. Right?

              Same question here: I know there's the online utility color.adobe.com, and that you can save your creations as libraries, but the workflow is not really practical to use, as opposes as the current extension, which requires only the panel opening inside Ps, with everything you need to create, edit or browse themes.

               

              Are you supplying a newer version of it, or is it just a removal?

                Same question. I love the Color Themes Panel! Just placing a message like this here without any additional information is a really unfreindly UX.
