Adobe Cloud Connections + Profile Badges
Adobe Cloud is a service that provides access to various creative apps and services, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, and more. Discord has a feature called Connections that lets you link your external accounts to your Discord profile, such as Spotify, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
Well, what if this was a connection and provided profile badges?
Adding Adobe Cloud to Discord’s connections could hypothetically work by allowing you to authenticate your Adobe Cloud account with your Discord profile, and display an icon on your user card to show others that you are a creative user. You could also potentially share your Adobe Cloud projects or files with your Discord friends or servers, or use Linked Roles to create gated access for certain Adobe Cloud apps or services. Meaning there could be specific connections within Adobe Creatives: allows more freedom of choice & management for those exclusive channels. It could make sense for some users who want to showcase their creativity or collaborate with others on Adobe Cloud apps, but it could also be unnecessary or irrelevant for others who don’t use Adobe Cloud or Discord frequently.
Now, for the profile badges: Discord could use some kind of verification system to check if the user is a certified professional using Adobe Creatives. Possibly, the certified badge(s) on https://info.credly.com/ from any user's profile would be a great way. This would potentially mean to have a connection with Credly or just Adobe via Credly. Afterwards, users would be granted a special badge on their Discord profile. This could help them stand out from other users and show their expertise and credibility. It could also create a sense of achievement and recognition for the professionals who have earned the badge.
On a personal note, I'd love to be able to have a connection(s)/profile badge of my certification badges within Adobe Cloud.

I'm not sure I understand the point of this. Many creatives, myself included, have expressed a desire to be less reliant on Adobe going forward. You don't need an Adobe badge to connect with and collaborate with other creatives on Discord, and putting creative spaces behind an Adobe-focused paywall would only alienate users. This seems like an unnecessary integration for all parties.
