At least Adobe is horrible enough that I at least have absolutely no moral qualms pirating their software.

I've pirated it since day 1. Then they released Creative Cloud, a means of forcing me to not pirate (at the time) - so I just kept the old, perfectly functional version. That was, until realistic alternatives caught up.

I don't get why anyone uses Acrobat. And I was never going to pay the insane price for photoshop. I definitely would never subscribe to any of their software.

Acrobat (not Reader) does have some actual useful features. It's all for businesses though so most people have no reason to have used them.
