Same boat. I miss when MacroMedia was still around.
Most client use adobe, I have to use what the market uses or face the capability issues when I receive or handover working files from / back to client.
As on my work, I have problem doing responsive web "design" on Windows. I don't think Adobe have a workable solution as of today. I used to use EdgeReflow, a very good responsive "design" tool. It only needs a library (like in In design) or master object (like in Muse) but they kill the project in favor of Muse. I try Muse and its rendering engine always brake my design! It add padding to where I have no padding, it convert my text to image etc... That force me to go back to Photoshop which is an image editing tool!
I just want a responsive web design tool so that I can export my artwork to html and communicate with the manager, the front-end people, but I think Adobe is confusing between Responsive Web design and Web front end developing. Muse seems to be made for mixing workflow between the two and end up doesn't do either job well. Whoever came up with the idea (of mixing workflow btw design and fornt-end developing) is for sure neither a designer nor a developer. Most likely coming from business section of the company.
And the InDesign which Adobe seem to always find a new way to make the software slower and slower every new update. Look at
this page, it is a good example how adobe fixs their problem.
I has been keeping an eye on that page for months, and I haven't yet find an answer to fix Indesign slow down problem yet. so I still with the 2015 version for now.

I think you can do
