[–] codeddji@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago* (2 children) Affinity just got bought by Canava. 1 time purchase license for now. But we will have to see !!! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Sar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago Yeah, that purchase worries the hell outta me tbh. Been using Affinity Designer and Photo for years, and happily paid for version 1 and the upgrade to version 2. Now, I'm worried they'll go for a new sub-based tier and limit features to the sub-version over the perpetual license, or hold features back for a version or two of the perpetual license version. Or the amount of AI-related bullshit they'll stuff the apps full of now, that will require a separate payment model for generation of images or fill-ins. Eurgh. permalink fedilink source parent [–] deweydecibel@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago Shit, really? I suppose that was inevitable but God damn it. permalink fedilink source parent
