The fact that they have to put out this means they know they are close to losing it.

The reasons brands do this is because they risk losing protections if their trademark becomes an established verb.

Joke’s on them, I’ve been using “adobe” to mean “shit” for decades.

They can’t do anything about it. It’s already in the Oxford dictionary www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/…/photoshop

Funny. I “photoshopped” (performed transformative manipulations [?] over) images, image macros and “memes” using Paint, Paint.NET, GIMP, Krita, ImageToolbox (Android) and some stock Gallery editor (Android).
Notably, not the Adobe® Photoshop®. Poop them.
There is some good reason behind “decorporating” slang, specifically i’d like to “degoogle” it. “Dephotoshopping” is sounds a bit nice too.

Trademarks are not verbs. So when I say something was photoshopped, it’s clearly not using the trademark. So it’s ok.

I photoshop things with GIMP all the time. I’m way better at it than when I use Adobes shit tier products…

It is now a verb according to the Oxford dictionary www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/…/photoshop
