For those wondering what Affinity is: it's now a package of 3 programs (Affinity Photo, Designer, and Publisher) combined into one tool. These are alternatives to Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. Photo handles raster image editing, Designer is for vectors, and Publisher for desktop publishing (layouts for books, magazines, brochures, etc.). All these tools are real competition to Adobe. They're roughly at the same level of functionality, and in some cases even better.
