Am I misremembering or was Adobe Reader both free and usable for a long time then ceased to be that? I don't know what they changed, but I remember being forced to switch to a FOSS alternative a few years back. Or was I using cracks for it back in the day and simply don't remember?

so it's not free nowadays? i thought it was always free

Signing / filling PDFs. As far as I'm aware it can do that for free. What is the alternative for that, can it be trusted in an enterprise environment for important financial documents?

I'm not sure, but I remember installing it a while back and having to look for a crack. I think they at the very least heavily restricted the free version to the point of making it unusable. Weird choice considering that there are a ton of free perfectly good alternatives these days.

yes

The way Acrobat licensing has always worked is that there's Acrobat and Acrobat Reader
Acrobat Reader is a free application that lets you open, but not edit or create, PDF files. Seems to be a bit hard to find these days as Adobe is pushing users toward a web-alternative but it's still there.
Acrobat is the paid version that lets you read, create, edit, sign, convert and whatever else you might need to do with a PDF besides just reading it

It was pretty good for printing in the 80s
