@GameFromScratch Don’t skip that Affinity recently bought by Canva and is imminent.

@GameFromScratch Krita has saved me from Adobe's grasp, and I am eternally grateful!

@geometer remember

Krita IS for Digital Painting.

is NOT for, Image Manipulation, Photo Manipulation.

@GameFromScratch Wow. So much cheaper than Adobe also. Tempting. Need a good replacement for Acrobat too, though. Suggestions?

@GameFromScratch Thanks for posting this. Looks nice. The one question that I can't find answered: Can Affinity Designer read Adobe Illustrator files? (For me it would be nearly useless if it can't. But wait, there's a free trial, too!)

@GameFromScratch Been using Affinity since Photo v1 launched, and folks need to be aware that there are some real blind spots in Serif’s ideas for how apps should work.

- Affinity Photo doesn’t let you see mask effects while editing a vector mask.
- Affinity Publisher has no concept of document-wide layers.
- The tools palette isn’t included in Studio Preset for arranging palettes on screen(s).
- You can’t work on more than one document on screen at a time.
