Made all my Adobe files offline… nope still can’t find them in finder.
Confirmed they are offline as pulled internet 🤦🏻♂️ my Creative Cloud files folder is empty! Restarted mac….

Called Adobe they hang up on me as I couldnt understand a word the “technical” person I was transferred too… Adobe is basically holding my files to ransom. I am now trying to download them from the web but you have to do one at a time, which is also failing!

Adobe holding your files hostage
Adobe you MUST provide a migration tool for moving cloud documents between profiles and you MUST provide a bulk export of all files in the cloud. Holding files hostage is brutal and not human centred design at all. I am expecting to lose some of my work. I have managed to get the most important things by the slow process of downloading them 1 at a time, sometimes 10 at a time when the Creative Cloud app played ball. I may write up a bigger post on this as its so hostile and we the creative industries and the students I teach are being held hostage to a monopoly in so many directions it’s just wrong. As personal budgets get tighter some people will need to cancel their Adobe Subscriptions, but with the issue they may never get access to their own work again, especially when you then delete them from the Cloud of the inactive accounts. This is out of order to a magnitude of 10/10.

What the heck office 365 / outlook at work (university) is still messing with legit emails. Literally saw one delete in front of my eyes no idea why and unfindable. And again important emails not arriving and then fairly stressing out the sender 🤦🏻♂️ have to talk to IT

Technical Debt and Adobe
THe way people use devices seems to me… moving further and further away from the way a lot of software wants you to function. From hiding export options, to completly hidden gestures or swipes that are anyones guess, even moving my URL bar from the top to the bottom without asking… thankfully firefox iOS offers a preference and may have even onboard the option to change, not safari

2022-08-24 Brilliant my (new) road and those around me have the council moving to make them 20mph. Not sure how enforceable it will be but enough people will play ball to make it much better, my road actually has very few cars along it but other roads around us are cut through’s

The boiler parts maybe the same but…
Training and care of customers pays, excellent local service for our boiler I am a very happy person now. Here’s the story;
Generic Plumber A, who did fit stuff excellent for us in conversion of ground bedroom to family room to be fair but said more than once - “boiler is too small for this house and rainfall showerhead was probably not a good idea” - new boiler circa £2k + fitting
Called local Viesmann approved plumber “this part is probably blocking / blocked and needs replacing, the services pervious on here didn’t do all the cleaning that we are trained to do, that’s obvious” part and service circa £400…
And guess what💥 Boom mega hot power rainfall shower wooo
Also advised a small part that maybe on the way out, but has re inflated it (didn’t force a instant replacement) and said what to look out for if it is actually perforated (aka why it had deflated), I said ok shall I make a note of that, he said no I will remember (not I’ll log it in the system).
Nailed it! Booked for annual servicing.

Watching your consumption is correct from an environmental POV but why say that now!
Privatise these companies humanity over shareholders
How many MPs profit from this?
