The entire Affinity Suite is now reduced to bait on a hook for an AI subscription service. This is enshittification. This arrangement will also undermine Affinity's credibility as a serious tool for work (and play!).
I just want to pay for nice software made by thoughtful people like a normal human.
- TranquilMarmot 11mo agoSupport open source projects with donations and contributions
- possiblerobot 11mo agoI'd love to do that, but I haven't seen any projects that have the polish and cohesive vision that I feel pro art / design tools should have. Apps like Inkscape and GIMP have always felt pretty rough around the edges and unpleasant to me, in a way that money won't help. Can you recommend any?
- GuinansEyebrows 11mo agoi would gladly pay $500 for GIMP if i felt their developers would prioritize features that i actually need out of an image manipulation program. they never have and by the looks of things, they never will. it's too bad.
- a96 11mo agoI wonder if there would be a bounty that you can set up somewhere. That would be a nice chunk to get started on a fork.
