I've heard people shitting on Adobe since CS3 and I started shitting on them at CS4. Adobe acquiring Flash was such a dark moment for so many creators.
*Macromedia
Yes, you're right. I initially didn't see any reason to differentiate, but I remember the existential dread over the future of Dreamweaver, too.
I was just ahead of the curve there. Used Macromedia Dreamweaver at the time to start coding sites. By the time Adobe took it over, I had already progressed to writing HTML in NetBeans. I had it harder with Fireworks, that was brilliant for making visually stunning sites.
Fireworks was awesome at the time.
