Hello!
I forgot to add that I would like to know why any company's applications need to be updated frequently?
What do you think?
Is it a problem of lack of project organization? Or a way to make the user dependent on your project?

What do they think?

By @MarcelloCôcu

We don't know what they think. Any input from the volunteers on this forum would be their own personal opinions. In the early days we only got bug fixes with the next release or if we knew to ask. This was for all software, not just Adobe. This days Microsoft and Intuit release updates just as often as Adobe.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

SHORT ANSWER:  Security & compatibility updates ensure that your software remains stable.

Waiting 18-24 months for updates as we did previously makes no sense now that Apple & Microsoft are releasing new OS updates 12 or more times per year.  Users want bug fixes as soon as they're available and software that stays compatible with the latest OS updates. 

That said, nobody is forcing you to update apps until you're ready.  You can disable automatic app updates from Preferences in your Creative Cloud Desktop app. Or install them manually when you decide to.  The choice is yours.
