Comment on Microsoft kills official way to activate windows without internet
madcaesar@lemmy.world 1 week agoAdobe is sadly the only thing that still requires windows.
Fuck Adobe and everyone there, they were the OGs that started the subscription bullshit for software and they had such dominance no business could say no, thus no schools could say no.
And they’ve just been buying up competition since, so no one can challenge them.
Adobe and Oracle are the software equivalent of cancer.

For home use, sure. For business use in a business that’s regulated, it’s a godsend. No longer do I have to fight with management about why we need to upgrade Adobe Acrobat even though we “just” bought it 5 years ago.
You pay and it stays up to date. No more vulnerabilities that go unpatched because “we just bought the software” (5 years ago and it’s out of support).
