    The whole UX of using a computer is a collaborative project between hardware, os, and apps (and maybe networks). Any friction in that process is born in part by both sides.

    I know what you are saying, and fuck Adobe, but the friction of Adobe products not working well on Linux is because Linux isn’t made to work well with corporate driven drm software. Unlike Microsoft, the Linux foundation isn’t likely to make a backroom deal to ensure that Linux will be developed in a way to keep their drm private and help them strip the rights of their users.

    That leads to friction it is Linuxs fault for not accepting Adobes bs here. As it is also Adobes fault for sacrificing technical excellence in lu of artificial scarcity.

      You’re wrong. It’s not collaborative. It’s competitive. Only open source is collaborative. There doesn’t need to be any secrets or DRM. That shit is what’s wrong. Worse than wrong, it’s bad.

      Linux isn’t a person. It “accepts” literally anything. Nobody needs to accept Adobe’s BS. The industry is dragged down by them, not propped up.

        If your OS is competing instead of collaborating with the hardware and apps, that’s gonna be a bad experience.

          Welcome to Apple and Microsoft. It’s a bad experience, but you’ll pay because all your friends are jumping off the same bridge.
