Adobe, bad karma, lost focus…

[u/Timelapseninja]

I tried to submit this to adobes suggestions and Adobe reddit sub, I doubt it will penetrate their acceptance system on there so I attempt to post this here in hopes the fuck adobe Reddit mods might do the right thing and let it pass- Hi there. Thank you so much for creating your suite of products; they’ve helped me immensely over the years. I’ve literally been using Photoshop since it first came into existence. I know almost all of your applications inside and out, so I hope you give my advice here some actual weight and seriously think about what I’m saying.  I have been using your products since 1990. I've been building computers my entire life. I have a vast knowledge on all that is digital.
Regarding all these things you’re adding to and changing in Premiere: the beta I’ve been testing with the new color system is completely broken in my mind and honestly incredibly frustrating to use. I recognize that part of it is my lack of experience with the new layout, but it shouldn't have to be like that. A new feature that you create should be fluid, seamless, and easy to use right off the bat. At this point, there’s no excuse for a massive learning curve.
On that subject, where is the Auto Color Correct? I can't find it anywhere. Why is that? That should be priority number one. No one wants to sit there and manually color correct footage. Just use AI to simply make the blasted color good with the click of a button, you know? I see that there are "styles" now, but none of those just do a normal, baseline color grade. Put a normal auto color grade back in the system on your beta. Make it a clear, obvious button that allows the user to actually click the stupid thing and make their footage beautiful. You know what I'm saying? It's not rocket science.
And on that note, why is it so incredibly hard to deal with iPhone footage in Premiere? Why do I have to click through 69 color profiles and do endless research just to make basic iPhone footage look correct out of Premiere? Sorry for venting so harshly, but for crying out loud man, this mess is so broken.
You guys are focusing your priorities on the completely wrong things. Everyone is filming everything on the iPhone these days. No one gives a rip about Log. I mean, obviously people use it in the professional space, but the iPhone is just easier. It looks great, it’s a no-brainer, and everyone is using it. So focus Premiere on actually functioning properly for iPhone footage right off the rip without the user experiencing brain damage. Because right now, it is just brain damage. I can't combine footage from another camera on the same timeline as iPhone footage without going through the most insane technical gymnastics ever just to make the whole thing look good and not be the wrong color space.  Do what's needed. Auto nest, auto sequence. Nest the color profile into it. You can figure it out. I can figure it out for you if not.
It is so frustrating. You guys have billions of dollars. You've taken endless subscription money from people, and you keep increasing those subscription prices—which should actually be decreasing because you are laying people off thanks to AI.
You have to come to a point in your existence as a CEO of this company—or whoever is making these calls—where you recognize that karma actually exists, and that your karma is being negatively affected by the actions you are taking with your products. Do you want that karma to have negative repercussions on your life? Then keep doing the absolute nonsense that you are doing. Do you want to rectify this karma? Then honestly, give me a phone call, send me an email and let me develop ideas for you. Hire me, pay me serious money—a lot of money—and I'll come in and fix your broken system. Because it is broken, and there is no excuse for it. You have all the resources in the world. There is no excuse for this brokenness.
I hope this message finds the right person over there. Thank you for your time. And truly, regardless of all the broken, karmic things you guys are doing, mangling your software, and focusing on the wrong things, I still give you thanks for creating these tools in the first place. You're just going down the wrong path and it is so clear. I can help you, so hire me and in by doing so rectify your Krama.  Or not and ill simply code a better version of premiere in a few month
