Yeah. My work machine now regularly black screens for up to 30 seconds then comes back. The Adobe Acrobat reader we are forced to use is now so bloated that it freezes the whole machine for up to a minute. What an OS.

Almost certainly driver, sometimes a failing dock or cable though.

That’s just adobe products. They’re great for subscription revenue for adobe.
I switched to fedora for work myself and onlyoffice is handling my current pdf needs, works great and FOSS. Can save to DOCX and everything… and the same program handles those too.
Lately whenever someone complains their C partition is full, it’s always unmistakably Adobe’s fault. Their shitty way of updating piles up crap in the Windows Installer folder. Uninstalling Adobe and cleaning up its garbage, no joke, frees up anywhere from 20 to 40 gigabytes of storage. Insane.

Whoa.
Nice.
My employer just switched away from Adobe, so thankfully, haven’t see those issues.
Mine has been doing shit like that for close to a year, the graphics driver is sooooo unstable
