I've also found Foxit Reader (free) to be least intrusive: it just opens the document in full screen and that's it! Foxit doesn't bother you with requests for attention/clicks/unnecessary account creation requests lile Adobe does.
Just opens the document and doesn't interrupt your work

Each account you create brings you a step closer to your data being compromised via breach/leak/stealing. One can do without all that.

Hi Ivo, thanks you I've installed Foxit reader and get ridden of Adobe Acrobat reader. I think the same rationale can be applied to Google Chrome vs Firefox and to Outlook vs. Thunderbird.

Let's hope that Foxit manages to avoid enshittification for a while.
Chrome is nice for corporate/school setting, being de facto tool and having all the remote management options. But for private use I deem Chrome to be cancerous and use Firefox indeed

I have an extra license that I don't need right now so I'll cancel it and let y'all know how easy or hard it is.

I finally got around to cancelling my subscription. Including taking these screenshots it took three minutes, and I didn't need to speak to anyone on the phone. I don't know how they could make it easier to cancel an Adobe subscription.

I imagine it's so easy because in the past they made it hard and got in trouble for it.

Anyway, three clicks... Manage Plan > Cancel your plan > Continue > *Poof* it's gone.

I'm on LR5. No plans to move on. Have LR3 on one old computer. Maybe if I hit the lotto I will let them rape me.
