There's nothing in Photoshop since CS2 that I need, and I use it every single week. In fact, with every update they seem to either break something, or make the tool worse. I've use the tool for 20 years. I don't WANT to be forced to upgrade to the newest version where some shortcut is inexplicably changed for no good reason. They need to stop trying to add new keys to a piano. Let us play the instrument as we learned it.

I agreee with everything you said, but none of it is relevant in the context of comparing Photoshop to an obsolete database.

My point was not that it’s UX is improving, only that the technology isn’t stale.

I mean, if the only features that get added aren't useful, then isn't that actually worse than being stale? It's an antipattern at that point.

I am centered pretty squarely in the middle of their use case, so I would be relatively surprised if I'm an outlier.
