Adobe recently switched from a company-wide blanket license, to requiring each of us to individually register. That was the last straw for me.
FYI if you ever need to fill out a PDF document, and dont trust Adobe, you can use either LibremOffice Draw, or my favourite graphics program Inkscape! Good times!😃

Well over 2 thousand people have filled out this survey, studying the effects of Operating Systems on happiness.
Awesome. Some fantastic data here. I'm going to leave the survey open through the weekend, then publish the findings next week.
