Yeah, they posted this:

> Hey, we're Adobe! We're here to connect with the artists, designers, and storytellers who bring ideas to life. What's fueling your creativity right now?

> Drop a reply, tag a creator, or share your latest work—we'd love to see what inspires you!

That's such a bland, corporate message. It feels totally inauthentic. Do Adobe (a corporation) really "love to see what inspires you" or do they just want engagement for their new account?

I'm not surprised in the slightest that it triggered a pile-on.

Meh. Adobe is a large corp. You'd want want them to masquerade as something they are not? Why would that be better?

I am so over pile-ons by people who see themselves as being SO important.

Also: it feels really weird to defend Adobe.

Adobe's post was an attempt to masquerade as a relatable company.
