To anyone promoting Affinity, they’ve sold out to Canva, a Venture Capital fueled mega corp looking for a public offering. Enchittification is inevitable.

Please look for FOSS alternatives instead.

Affinity tools are still good. Until they’re enshittified, still a good deal.

Off the top, Krita and Inkscape. Haven’t transitioned yet, but I have ceased receiving updates. Next OS workflow will no longer involve affinity.
