Pure evil [not happy about subscription]

Adobe has abandoned both poor (and disabled creators, like me) that's who they are hurting the most.

No one time fee. People barely scraping by and can't afford it, oh, and not forget the fees to cancel their sub when you are struggling. Honestly a bunch of greedy jerks. I never want to support them ever again. the 10/ a month was fine

But disabled folks like me can be extremely sick out of nowhere for weeks months at a time and unable to function. I don't get to 'decide' when i will be okay enough to work or even use the programs. So money I barely have is also wasted. They DOUBLED their prices, which is even worse. They force you to subscribe for long time because you can't just subscribe when you think you can use it that month(and folks with busy work lives, disabilities etc, have no time to even use it)
It's just biased and unfair. It's like their model is only for creators ALREADY making big money or have a lot of free time on their hands. I love clip studio and they aren't evil like adobe is. 

Well John T Smith, your answer to davido35538265 is probably the most arrogant, disinterested comment I've seen on this forum.

Now on to my problem.

Two days ago I filled out a survey and after I completed it I was offered a considerable discount on my plan cost. A bit more than $20 per month reduction.

When I tried to progress this I was told this was only available for new subscibers.

John T, I have been using most Adobe products since 2010. Photoshop from 1998. InDesign since version 1. Illustrator since 1998. And so it goes. My point is that our loyalty to Adobe could occasionally be rewarded.

Such an opportunity occured two days ago.

And before you offer me similar advice to davido35538265 just think about how many other people, including me, are indeed researching alternatives.

They didn't move to the Cloud. Just added Cloud to the product name to make it sound cooler.

Nobody is forcing you to buy a subscription

Use Google to find alternate programs
