Generative credit system stingy on lower Creative Cloud tiers
Adobe layered a generative credit system on top of existing Creative Cloud subscriptions. The monthly allocation runs out quickly for designers using Generative Fill, text-to-image, and other AI features daily. Running out of credits doesn't stop the feature — it throttles to slower processing, but buying additional credits feels like a double-bill on top of an already expensive CC subscription.
"I already pay $55/month for CC. Now I'm being asked to buy more 'generative credits' on top? This feels like a cash grab."
