Intro

Hello everyone and welcome to the Manly Hanley Podcast. This is the Podcast with no limits on what we'll cover.

I'm your host, Randy. Have a snack, sit back, and relax.

I witness Adobe products crashing (Dozens of Instances) on a weekly basis.
  • Their software policing (greed) hinders the software's stability.Shit-tons of services/processes running even with just an Acrobat DC Standard install.

    • 2 weeks ago, EposVox (The Stream Professor/Young man that knows a hell of a lot and makes some amazing master classes) announced he was leaving Adobe Premiere.(131) I never thought I'd leave Premiere... but I did. - YouTube
  • Their cloud-based installers suck. I find my self (often) having to download the full/offline installer in order to get a base package to install. Then, of course, it needs to update to the latest version that isn't in the offline installer because, why in the hell would they want to keep that up-to-date? That would make too much sense.
    • The Solution? Stop Feeding Adobe
    • Make them starveUse Open Source, alternative products that are transparent, and don't take advantage of their users. Donate to those open source projects that you're benefiting from, if you feel like it.
      • Check out some crowd-sourced/recommended alternatives to Adobe's software at: AlternativeTo - Crowdsourced software recommendations
