To be honest, it’s hard! Every time I open the apps the muscle memory isn’t there, everything takes longer.
I didn’t used CC often enough any more to justify the subscription. But 20 years of knowledge and experience (at times I was using it every day) doesn’t translate as quickly to another app when you are only using it once a month.
The Affinity products are good, they just aren’t exactly the same as the Adobe equivalents.
I’m committed to not going back though.
I struggle and get frustrated with affinity photo (why are there multiple types of pixel layer??), even if it is good software, because to me - wrongly, of course - photoshop is de facto _how_ a photo editor should work. I'm sure I'll adjust with time. But I use photo editors less than ever, so it's very slow going.
But, I can't really complain for the price I paid, and no subscription necessary. A lot of respect for Affinity in that regard. It's a business model that is becoming increasingly rare.
