The deadline for Adobe CC for Linux is obviously Jan 14 2020 when Windows 7 support ends. Is there a chance the new linux version will be available before then?

    Why would there be a deadline? What does it matter if Windows 7 support is ending? Adobe CC products run fine on Windows 10.

    I'm not sure I understand why the planned deprecation of an older Windows version would create any kind of deadline, nor any impetus to have a Linux version. The two don't seem related to me. Am I missing a key point?

    I'm also confused why Windows 7 ending would have any sort of deadline-imposing power. I use Adobe stuff on Windows 10 just fine.

    Out of principle. Its malware, spyware and adware.

    See the LONG discussion in Creative Cloud for Linux (Ubuntu)

    As far as I know, Adobe has not explicitly said that there WILL be a Linux version, only that the developers are aware of the comments
