Adobe's been a driving force behind creative software for decades, and it likes to emphasise how it listens to creatives. Just yesterday, it announced the creation of the new Adobe Creative Collective to keep tabs on how work is changing in multiple fields. Nevertheless, it still has an uncanny knack for upsetting long-time users.
The software giant dropped a bombshell for animators this week when it sent out an email announcing with a month's notice that it would discontinue Adobe Animate from 1 March. Existing users were told they would lose the ability to download their content 12 months later.
