Creative Cloud is also spyware, transmitting and uploading your logs and activity within the apps silently and without your consent. I use Little Snitch and deny them almost all network access after the first ten minutes they are installed/activated. It’s a big patchwork of stuff, much of it running as admin, including node and other stuff. I don’t trust it at all, and would have a dedicated machine or VM for it if it were practical.

Hopefully I can move to the KDE video editor for NLE, and Pixelmator is already better than Photoshop IMO. The only other two I need to replace are Lightroom and After Effects. I think the latter will be hard/impossible.
