Holy crap, they were still updating Director as late as ~2016? I don't think I've heard anyone talk about using it since like 2000. Feels super weird to see "Adobe Director".

I always just figured they dropped it like they did Freehand after they bought Macromedia for Flash.

Still hurts that they killed Fireworks. Best photo editor ever for quick web ready edits.

Yep. Except sketch still isn’t up to delivering the same level of usability that fireworks had.

Not to mention it was bundled in Creative Suite.
