Comon guys, boycotting is childish!
This being said, I am not sure that 9.99 US$ changes anything.
It for sure is a more reasonnable price point, one that is probably closer to what I used to be spending... but the lack of exit strategy remains.
So, as far as I am concerned, the answer continues to be focused on looking for alternatives to Photoshop till my CS6 instance becomes unusable.
"looking for alternatives" meaning buying licenses from those alternative sofwares to fund the development of these software, several in parallel up to the amount I would be paying to Adobe on CC.
Cheers,
Bernard
