    Pulling the Plug...
    For the last six months I only use Acrobat Pro and sometimes Audition.

    I guess the time is now because it doesn't make sense anymore to pay 37€ a month for something I don't use.

    I've got alternatives to everything and Bridge is free.
    Acrobat Pro though is really unbeatable I guess.

    Anyone using an alternative you can recommend?

    I'm really gonna miss Adobe Illustrator...

    So my alternatives will be:

    Affinity Photo
    Affinity Designer
    Affinity Publisher (in case I need something like InDesign)
    Reaper (Audacity's UI is just 90's Windows)
    DaVinci Resolve
    Foxit PDF?
    Handbrake?

    Bridge is free so I think I'm covered.

    • I'm obviously open to suggestions. Adobe CC was handy for now and then projects and because of my freelance work but in the last two years I barely did anythingoey_oey
    • What pains me are the years of gathered knowledge to achieve the level of ease of use with tools I nowadays rarely use. It's just practical.oey_oey
    • And convenient. Open app. Work. Done.oey_oey
