Avid Hates You - "idk.app" Is Damaged And Can't Be Opened

  Avid hates you, Avid likes to eat your soul, Avid is bloated software, Avid is too old school even for an old fart like me.

What the F*&k is this Avid?

 Not only your software is way too big, gobbling over 8GB of space on my drive, but your stupid installer is installing crap apps, or installing shit so wrong that macOS has to block it.

jdk.app BLOCKED!

 Seriously what the F*&k Avid? Media Composer is the only software that you have to battle every single time you fire it up. No peace ever with MC. After battling it for hours it might work fine for a few days, or a few weeks if you're lucky. But as soon as you change anything on your system, god forbid update anything, you are a target for Avid ire. MC will break, somehow, somewhere.

 I only use Media Composer and Pro Tools from Avid, I have no idea how other Avid software works. Compared to MC, Pro Tools is much more stable, but as you probably know, Avid acquired Pro Tools from Digidesign, and in my mind it has much better bones.

 Why can't Avid make Media Composer more stable and better is a mystery to me. 😑
