    A software giant like that can only go two directions:

    1. suck the installed base tit for paychecks while cutting costs as much as possible
    2. grow, innovate, expand

    They are still trying to be 2 when a lot of people would like them to be 1, and they have to show new feature adoption statistics to prove that all their expensive employees are still worth paying.

      See, that’s a false dichotomy.

      Modern corporate America demands expansion and growth. But expansion and growth do not need to be required for innovation.

      That’s where Adobe is a victim of the vulture capitalists who’ve taken it over.
