James Lee is a blessing to us all. Also Adobe has been in freefall I think for quite some time but no one really stepped up or been there all this time without just being noticed until recently.
Makari: "I'm not used to James talking so calmly." Three minutes later... James: "IT'S UP TO YOU NOW TO STAND UP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! TAKE ACTION NOW!" Makari: "James please! You're spitting in my face, please!... I understand I'm a corporate shill!" T-T
As someone who works in IT, I know all too well the feeling of helplessness that comes from not being free to change tools according to your needs, often for marketing reasons that shouldn't even interfere in the lives of the average user. And this is made worse by the fact that not every software user is a technology enthusiast and has the ease to adapt to a completely different workflow. Changing ecosystems is something that demands time, patience and, above all, resources, since many people use this ecosystem to work and the slightest change represents minor gains. And this becomes even more frustrating when we feel like we're being held hostage by software that only they can deliver with acceptable synergy. Personally, I see Adobe and Microsoft as a Nestlé of life, where we know the company is harmful, but it is so entangled in the industry that trying to break away from it means losses for many people.
unfortunately its something that needs to be done. we simply can't afford to let this continue forward anymore. when I get my new pc I fully intend to use linux to the best of my ability and anything else I can find that isn't these big companies that show they just don't care (if you don't care then I won't stay).
love the video, also love when you explained the animation technique and things that most people might not understand.
James video is essentially "see if i can leave Adobe you can do it"

I use Adobe. But, I used the pre-subscription software from years ago, so I’m not paying a subscription to them.
