Maybe they want to compete with the price per subscription: let’s say they want to charge 5 € per month for Photo, Design and Publisher each, against 26 € for Photoshop (alone).

Remembering the situation when Macromedia was bought bei Adobe – now I have the same vibes again. Five years later nothing was left except Flash – that horrible piece of software – and Dreamweaver – I liked that one. The best transition back then was from Freehand to Illustrator and (consequently from Quark) to InDesign.

And then in 2015 to Affinity. So … 5 years with Corel, 12 years with Adobe/Macromedia, now 8 years with Affinity, so far … let’s see what they do and what we decide afterwards.

A VM does the job. For me as a Manjaro user at home have no problems with flexibility. And as an Apple Mac User at work there can’t be more suffering. 😜

“Somebody still uses Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign?” – I am using Affinity since 2016 … and saved more than 4K € subscription costs. 🤑

What will happen next?! The Logo is really similar to x.org or their X Window System.
