Did they ever? They bought PageMaker in 1994 and Photoshop in 1995. They bought Macromedia in 2006, GoLive, Live motion, Typekit, Behance… Is there anything they’ve ever bought they haven’t slowly ruined with financialisation or just outright shuttering what would have been competition?

That’s a good point. I gotta be honest, I’d forgotten that Adobe bought Photoshop.
Yeah they’re kind of the ultimate monopolization machine
