Generally I dislike this kind of view and find it not to be true.
But in this case… man, it feels like Adobe deliberately try to slow down Photoshop and the wider CS suite. I used to use these a lot back in early CS days, but I've used the trials recently and by far the biggest offenders are some of the bad UIs that they've slapped on top of things like creating new documents, or Photoshop's "Home Screen".
They're slow as molasses, provide minimal useful features, and there is an explicit option to turn them off and use the legacy versions (usually a massive red flag to me that a feature is shite).
Man it's that bad I've literally stopped my Adobe subscription and moved on to Affinity products. It's 95% as good. (Better than how you'd compare DDG to Google for example). And so much cheaper. Also Adobe has so much crapware on my computer.
They changed their rendering engine for Photoshop a couple of years back and ever since it’s been slow as hell. I’m in Photoshop at least 20 hours a week and I’m still using Photoshop 2019.
