Affinity Software vs Adobe

It's fine today just like yesterday.

 

I've started a free trial of Affinity Universal License, which is one of the alternative tools to Adobe. I've been using Gimp, but honestly, I can't stand it anymore. Still, I dare say, "Thanks, Gimp." I used to use Adobe software, but now I haven't used them often enough to subscribe. At this rate, I think Adobe users would abandon them. Of course, many professionals would say Adobe is essential. But aspiring professionals in the design industry may not have enough money, even though Adobe offers an academic license. When it comes to video editing, young people mostly use Davinci Resolve. On top of that, no one around me uses Adobe. I'm willing to pay for just one intriguing experience, even though it costs me more than one hundred bucks. But I don't want to pay for subscription software that I'm not sure I'll use often, even if it costs only a few bucks. It's kind of a mystery, but that's a fact.

 

In fact, I'll happily pay for Affinity Universal License when the free trial ends.
