![]() I can pretty much see all of tomorrow's apps being web-based services with monthly fees, none of this downloading business. Also, I've worked with big companies, they often are far more rigid and less open to new things, at least in my experience. The very fact that upstarts can pose ANY competition to no-one less than ADOBE seems to me pretty significant. Figma certainly looks more promising than XD, last I checked. I think programs like Canva will morph into something far better given some time and lack of takedowns. I haven't used mobile versions of Adobe products much, but it seemed to me they are somewhat restricted not due to device capabilities and screen space, but the zillion menus and tiny items you have to tick on the desktop so you get what you need. If you think about it, the way to add, say, a layer style to an object in Photoshop is pretty counterintuitive, especially in 2021. This is unsolvable in any other way other then doing away with the old alltogether, IMHO. It had to be completely re-written to appeal to modern users in the mobile era, but simultaniously there is a an enormous pool of old ones that need it as it was. In my opinion, the same problem persists in FontLab that does in Adobe products - it is a software with a very old paradigm, something from before the 2000's. ![]() I started my career in 2014 on the then version of Glyphs, later when I was stuck on a PC I busted my head over FL7's way of creating instances, and have a mind to buy a Mac Mini and a Glyphs license now.
