    If you're looking for more adobe issues to add to the list, my favorite new glitch in Photoshop is "Randomly acts like the shift key is always pressed, ruining every single hotkey in the program until you restart", or maybe "Pasting from the computer's clipboard literally doesn't work, I don't understand what Photoshop's fucking problem is."

    My favorite part about this is "Used blender, so encountered no issues". They absolutly did encounter issues, but what constitutes an issue in adobe vs anything is else are so wildly out of phase with eachother that you can't in good faith use the same word for both at once. If blender has issues, then adobe has catastophes and that just doesn't fit normal sentance structure.

      Not to be just another "Blender is better" comment but...
      Used Maya: encountered issue, tried googling issue, nobody knew answer and several people told me I illegally downloaded the program (which I didn't lmao) and deserved it. The program took 10 minutes to reload each time.
      Used Blender: encountered issue, googled the answer, everything opened in seconds, even on the bad computer.
      Someone one time said Blender is bad because "it's not made by a company so it's less support" and I unsubscribed, because I have always easily found help online and Blender's flaws are regularly updated, while Adobe and Autodesk have created such a monopoly on programs they don't care about their consumers, they have no incentive to fix their broken products.

I finally swap to blender cause my license expired, and holy crap I have not had a single similar issue since. The only things I have had are either I open a heavy model which just takes a few sec to open. Or I did something wrong not knowing something specific to the program. Which all was found online.

      I think any creative can relate, as just about any modern creative goes through Adobe at some point. I'm a video editor who frequently collaborates with a graphics artist in the office. The other week, Premiere decided it couldn't handle 2 streams (one 1080p, one 720p) on an M2 Pro, to the point where it'd *forcibly* lock up and play the entirety of the timeline to the end. And I don't mean lock up Premiere, I mean the entire freaking computer. Meanwhile, the graphic artist had his photoshop crash so many times that he just quietly left work early that day, and the next morning arrived with his whole desktop computer just so he could work with a program that wasn't from Adobe.

This seems like the kind of project that starts as a “Hey friends let’s do something cool together!” thing that quickly morphs into everyone fucking *hating* each other, and the fact that you took control and were able to keep everyone from killing each other/you in the process is genuinely a testament to your abilities as a team leader.

      Actually, since what I’m working with uses real footage, the worst feature in CSP is it’s video import. It works, relatively, but the video can’t be too long or else it will destroy the program from the inside out if you try to play it. So you have to chop it into 1-2 second sections.

    For an animation class in college I was supposed to use Adobe Animate for all of my projects. At the end of the semester I had to create an animation a bit over a minute long and I struggled with that thing for weeks and weeks purely because of adobes ability to be bad at being an animation software. The deadline was coming up and after weeks of getting nowhere I finally emailed my professor to ask if I could use Clip Studio instead for this project. He said it was fine. I restarted the entire project from scratch. It took me about a day.

    15:35 Adobe Premiere would resize the frame randomly during an animation, F up the colors of an image to look like when the TV antenna was off-channel, and motion would break for no reason. Now I use DaVinci Resolve, but still using Photoshop. Should view "Breaking up with Adobe" by James Lee.
