Most of my photographic work is done when I press the shutter button.

This I totally agree with you. Even the great film photographers finished their Art in the dark room not just a SOOC, they didn’t just print it and ship it. Any one that did a lot of darkroom work knows photoshop isn’t that much different except it is a lot faster with immediate feedback and a lot safer without all the chemicals.

His funeral director will be charging a monthly fee. Stop paying, and up he comes.

Methinks you like to create controversy.

There's a collection of fools within the UHH community that post about SOOC and anti-software / anti-editing of 2023 digital images most every single day. I'm sure they'll be sending dead flowers to Mr Warnock's memorial service.

Actually met him a little bit after Adobe was formed. I was working for a large commercial printer that was designing and implementing systems to replace film with digital image processing. We met with them at their offices a few times and they came to our R&D facility and preliminary departments a few times. They were interested in our page makeup and image processing processes. We wanted them to keep our needs in mind as they developed their software. Eventually, we stopped developing our own software and used Adobe products starting with Adobe Pagemaker.
The thing I remember most was Adobe's philosophy of looking at revenue per employee. They moved away from anything that would decrease that metric and moved towards projects that improved that metric.
He was a visionary that truly improved the world. Anybody with a computer, including smartphones, uses Adobe pdf.
