It's very funny that Adobe changed course one day after announcing they were going to make the final iteration of Flash inaccessible forever (everybody disliked that) but it really shows how bad things have gotten that people are literally begging to merely be able to continue paying for a thing forever.

In all seriousness, do not use tools that are only available to rent.

I have chosen my words very carefully here.

Just like when Unity announced runtime fees and Godot migration increased, Adobe's recent announcement of making Animate inaccessible has spurred on exit strategies in that scene.
