Just did the annual Adobe dance to keep my subscription at the much reduced monthly rate again for next 12 months. Why not just offer that same reduced rate to start with! Gah! Still pissed off there are no scroll bars on the new version of Adobe Acrobat... have reverted back to previous version for the moment until they fix their shit. At least they fixed their update in the latest Indesign to correcting import previous version preferences and not just throw an error!

I mainly use Photopea plugin in Figma when I need to retouch or adjust an image. Works like a charm.
- +1 I use Photopea in the browser, don't need anything else.skinny_puppy
- Granted last PS I used was CS2, so take with a grain of salt. But Photopea does 98% of what I used to do with PS CS2 and has the same keyboard shortcuts!skinny_puppy

- yeah this one sucks... not so much for me but for clients if you want to walk them through a composite pdf with spot plates and varnishes.jonny_quest_lives
- requires extra setup on my end versus just selecting pantones from the library.jonny_quest_lives
- not to toot my own horn but my LAB values look closer to the Pantone outputs than the Pantone library colors did anyway.jonny_quest_lives

Just copied dozens of pages from one file to another to discover it breaks all of the hyperlinks. They now point to the original file, not the URL specified.
FFS.

The newest version of InDesign erases your workspace preferences, it seems.
- it randomly does this anyways, maybe it's a featuredoesnotexist
- I've experienced this for years off-and-on when updating ID annually, also with AI. If you look it up support usually just says you have to start over.evilpeacock
- Latest release fixes this debacle... you can go back in and choose to add you preferences from previous version. Still a PITA if you manually did it like I didsab

The story repeats itself every year.
Just cancelled my subscription, because starting next month I would have to pay double as much, so I could receive an offer to keep it the way it was until now.
That's it. See you next year.

Adobe Media Encoder app: 5.35GB
Handbrake app: 132MB
lol

- not to mention the speed. 40 hours to transcode a 16h video to mp4 proxy in FCP. 45 mins with ffmpeg + python whyyy???kingsteven
- I will put up with Media Encoder as long as it's the only way to render from AE and still be able to work in AE. Handbrake can't do that for me.CyBrainX
- But I am aware it's the worst thing Adobe makes, by far.CyBrainX

The "you're opening a file from the desktop or closing one? Let me bring your other minimized file windows to the front too" behaviour makes me want to put my fist through the screen sometimes.

Testing AE 2023 beta. Holy shit, it took them over 20 years to finally introduce a true 3D viewport. Thank fucking god for this.
The old 3D viewport was the worst ever.

We don't use Bēhāňćė in any kind of professional capacity, but woke up to find we'd been switched to a business managed account and all our CC Libraries have been migrated, breaking everything.
Who is running this shitshow?

Spot Healing Brush Tool and Healing Brush Tool have had their icons switched for years, I think. The dotted selection line suggests you need to draw from a selected part of the image for the healing brush, but you don't. Healing Brush Tool, without the selection line, requires the selection.
Adobe needs a complete UI overhaul, and preferably one that unifies the common/related tasks across PS, AI, and ID.
