I am not a unique flower. Like many creatives, I had a good relationship with Adobe that, over time, went belly up.
The first sign something was wrong was when the company more or less ignored Mac design conventions in a way that made its software harder to use. (All you had to do was support full-screen apps in Mac OS X Lion, dudes!)
Then it turned its subscription plan into the only real option. Then it kept raising prices. Then it changed its offering in a way that suggested it only really cared about customers who could pay them for hundreds of licenses each year.
On top of that, it failed to keep up with where I was going as a user, along with many other users. Despite the fact that a huge contingent of power users have been decamping to Linux, it more or less ignored those users. Meanwhile, AI changed the definition of what software could be.
