Adobe Actually Won't Discontinue Animate

Adobe is no longer planning to discontinue Adobe Animate on March 1st.

Many creators expressed frustration after Adobe's original discontinuation announcement from earlier this week, and the application is still used by creators like David Firth, the person behind the animated web series Salad Fingers. Now, Adobe says that "We are committed to ensuring Animate usersaalways have access to their content regardless of the state of development of the application."
