I just don't get how Adobe didn't get dethroned after being so unpopular for so long. There are so many Photoshop competitors, many of which are quite good, they seem to be ripe for disruption. The last version I used was CS6, which came out more than a decade ago, and even that had more than a good enough feature set.

Blender is slowly taking over 3D, why can't 2D be disrupted similarly?

That is how free market capitalism is supposed to work.

If you do not like products you switch to a competitor. That is the fundamental assumption on which the system is built

The end-user relationship with Adobe feels a lot more like a mob protection racket than free market capitalism.
