Affinity Stops Selling Its Software in Preparation for 'Big Changes'

No subscriptions, no subscriptions, no subscriptions...

I smell the cloud coming.

I smell the "AI creativity tools" coming, meaning it cannot be fixed priced anymore.

Don't speak it into existence.

Spoiler: they're going subscription...

Which defeats the entire value proposition of their software unless the subscription is super cheap (meaning, <$10 for the suite.) Otherwise, you're better off going back to Photoshop.

Corporate Translator Says: Subscriptions, and more microtransaction are coming...

my guess is they injecting ai and "cloud" into their apps and ruining everything with a freemium model...
