I know that Adobe offers a discount for students but how about unemployed artists.  I’m an artist who is currently looking for work and I need the Adobe suite more than ever to create new content and website for my portfolio. Shelling out $53 a month right now without a paycheck seems like a lot of money. Adobe if your reading this please consider a discount for the unemployed.

That would be completely impossible to enforce. Everyone in the world will claim to be 'unemployed', and there is no way for Adobe to prove otherwise.

There are free or low-cost alternatives to many Adobe applications (GIMP, Resolve, Affinity, etc.) and while they may not have all the same features, they're usually good enough for people who don't need to collaborate.

I can prove unemployment with my unemployment benefits paperwork from the state. Students have to prove they are students, the same would apply to this situation.

Since this is a public forum, not Adobe support, other users here can only say what is, not what any would like to have happen

Bottom line... Adobe does not have that discount, and only Adobe can change that policy


Funny enough I contacted chat support which told me to talk to phone support and they told me to go Post on this forum.
