    I did it. Just bought Affinity V2 package. It was half off right now so $85 for the desktop and ipad license together. Now i just have to figure out how to use it and when to switch projects over. Wish me luck qubes.

    • I haven't fully switched but like having Affinity around; There are some unique features in Designer, and app performance is much better than Illustrator.evilpeacock
    • I applaud you as thinking of doing same... however after all the TikTok’s I keep seeing of everyone jumping ship...prophetone
    • I can’t help but laugh at the very real possibility that ADOBE will eventually buy Affinity bc they’ll have no other strategyprophetone
    • Just think of the betrayal-driven backlash we’re gonna see on the designer socials lol, everyone will just give upprophetone
    • the money we spent on buying bloggers and people with high reach was just insane, but it really worked out at the end.

    • for an $85 one time fee I can slowly deal with the fallout of adobe while still making an income and not feel like a complete junior designer learning affinity.capn_ron
    • @prophetone Adobe would have to buy Canva, they bought Affinity in Marchdmay
    • Well Adobe is supposedly 10X richer than Canva so who knows, but they are going to get backed into a corner eventually as more users bounceprophetone
    • They were willing to spend $20 billion on Figma, so they could do itdmay
