Slow to start, cludgy interface, etc. There are very few times I need to load it to read a PDF; 99% of my use cases I'm able to use okular or something else. But at work (Windows) I've got the full-on Adobe Acrobat and I don't like it much better. The interface is getting worse, not better, it occasionally hangs, and simple things have gotten harder to do. I can't even find half the stuff I used to do, like reducing file size by down-sampling images. If this is the kind of software Adobe would write for Linux users, I'd say "hands off."
