I hate being that guy, but in its current state this repo is begging for a DMCA takedown from Adobe. I think that this project is really important for linux adaptation, so is there any way that this project could be accomplished in a legal manner?

This is similar to #81
I liked to use Photoshop with a license and legally. But to do that we need to use Adobe Creative Cloud on Linux. I checked that, and it has some issues with wine especially for new products like CC so I had to find another solution. And I found a modified pre-activated version of Photoshop that was compatible with wine
About DMCA I didn't read its rules and I don't know if it's legal or illegal

@WillPower3309 you can call Adobe up and ask for their account then transfer your money to pay for the license. im sure they''ll acept it.

I'm sure they would as well, but unfortunately that doesn't change the issue at hand.

How about the option to install a trial version? Once expired you just reinstall

Adding trial version as default, then the second choice in the setup for custom (url/path to file)

Going off of this, having the url as an input field may make this repo legal, as it does in the case of emulators / youtubedl since you aren't providing the copyrighted material directly

It's potentially possible with the release of wine 6.5 that the cc installer may work, given its IE improvements (which is what the issue was with CC iirc), not guaranteed but worth a check for anyone updating: https://www.winehq.org/announce/6.5

If Adobe wants our money, they should support it natively on Linux.

Why should you pay for something that isn't officially supported? Adobe doesn't want you as a customer. You are not worth their time.

Well two obvious reasons are legality and the fact that this repo could be taken down, in which case no photoshop for anyone
