Yeah thank the heavens the deal was squashed. It was a bold move even for Adobe.
Building a NAS in this day and age is trivial. Hard drive space is cheaper and far more economical than paying $20 a month for a service. The way prices are going it's going to soon hit parity with car payments.
I had an old PC from 2012 with an i3 dual core in it. Ran a headless Linux server. Raided the 2 3TB drives. Done. It was replaced by a 4 TB SSD and since those have nowhere near the failure rates of HDDs, one and one. It servers files off my main computer which is a beefy Mac.
Enabled file sharing. Opened the port on my firewall. Done. It's one of the easiest services to offload to a homebuilt rig.
Not feasible in a work environment. Photopea works just fine if you simply need CS6 level Ps. Just need a browser.
They are considered malware at this point. The telemetry they collect the fact that your machine has to run a slew of daemons and that they are binding it all behind your mandatory Adobe account that has all your financial details, kinda shows how users rights are in the dark ages digitally speaking.
Ya no argument there. Adobe is way out of bounds. We have largely moved to Figma but that was like pulling teeth as every was using Ps and Ai when I joined. Ai for wireframes had me tossing at night not gonna lie!
The PSDs it spits out lose a lot of editing capabilities and have limited functionality. TIFF is destructive our clients would shit if we gave them tiffs.
Hi, please to meet you. Can I get you anything, coffee, danish? No? Ok, please have a seat. Let me just say, based on your resume, you seem very qualified for the position. So let’s just get the standard questions out of the way. As an Optimus humanoid, what kind of value do you see bringing our company?
You also shouldn’t use them as a safe way to store things. They routinely delete shit or bake your data and point to their EULA like sorry buddy, no guarantees. Your stuff is not safe there at all.
Far better to store locally and just create a way to share it or access it from your home network.
Lemme guess, he doesn't agree with Adobe like the rest of the internet?
He also repeats himself a lot. A lot. Keeps repeating himself which is why his videos are 2h. Because he just keeps repeating himself. A lot.
