    This is Adobe, what do you expect? I'd say the days of them understanding what the pro market needs are long gone - if you look at their conferences, everything seems geared towards amateur users.

      It's not gone, there are pros who still rely on adobe. Other types of design still do exist. I understand there are fewer prototyping tools + purely UX design tools, but even the "top" ones are from companies barely a 10th of adobes age and still need fixes and still all offer different paths, with non truly being all out better than the others. One of the most popular alternatives isn't even available on windows. The adobe is dead thing really confuses me so much because they still have some fantastic tools.

        I am not saying Adobe is dead. Even though Sketch has some 40% of the marketplace for UI and Adobe only 30% (20% for PS 10% for XD), they are still the market leader in many industries and are not going anywhere anytime soon. I am however saying that they have focused heavily on amateurs lately and not enough on the pros (look at the features introduced in PS or the stuff they talk about during their conferences).
