Affinity resurfaces as an all-in-one illustration, photo editing and layout app

OMG I'm so stoked about this news!!! Canva just leveled up their game with making Affinity entirely free! I was worried that they'd go the subscription route, but instead they're like, "Hey, we got this!" This is amazing for all the creative folks out there who don't want to shell out big bucks for software. The fact that they're still bringing all these sick features and tools is just icing on the cake Canva's basically saying, "We trust you to use our app wisely" And with the new interface and integrations, I'm sure we'll see some crazy cool stuff come out of this! Bring it on!

omg u guys!! i'm so stoked that canva is making affinity free!!! like seriously it was a major concern for me when serif got acquired, wondering if we'd have to shell out $$$ for each app anymore but now that it's all combined into one app? game. changer. i mean the interface looks super sleek and easy to use, and canva's introduced some awesome new features like mixing and matching tools i'm loving the idea of being able to save custom toolbars for specific projects too and let's not forget about the integrations with canva ai studio! automatic background removal and generative fill editing capabilities? yes. please

I'm loving this huge paradigm shift by Canva! Who needs individual subscriptions when you can have an all-in-one powerhouse like Affinity? The ability to mix and match tools and save custom toolbars is pure genius - it's going to take the user experience to a whole new level. Plus, integrating Canva AI Studio tools into Affinity is a game-changer for efficiency and productivity. I'm also stoked that Canva decided to keep the app free, which will definitely help alleviate some concerns from veteran users who were worried about switching to a subscription model.

It's interesting to see how this move will shake things up in the creative software space, especially with Pixelmator being acquired by Apple recently. This competition is sure to drive innovation and push boundaries, and I'm excited to see what other cool features Canva comes up with! One thing for sure is that Canva's bold decision has cemented its position as a major player in the industry.

idk about this new Affinity app from Canva... it's like they're trying to make up for being acquired by Serif I mean, who needs individual licenses for each app when you can just get 'em all in one? At first glance, the interface looks pretty cool, but I'm worried that some of the pro features will be locked behind a free account Canva's trying to keep it streamlined, but what about us creatives who want more control over our tools? The fact that they're throwing in Canva AI Studio tools and integrations with other services is definitely a plus, though

I'm low-key hyped about Canva's new Affinity app ! I remember when these apps were free and people used them all the time. Now, with Canva taking over Serif, everyone was worried they'd go subscription-only. But, surprise! They made it entirely free again . That's huge for creatives who just want to make stuff without breaking the bank.

It's awesome that they simplified the interface and added some sick features like mixing tools and saving custom toolbars . The integration with Canva AI Studio is also a game-changer – automatic background removal and Generative Fill editing are total time-savers!

I'm curious to see how veteran users will adjust, but from my perspective, this move is a win-win for everyone involved . It's gonna be interesting to see what Apple does with Pixelmator now that it's part of the Apple ecosystem . Either way, Canva's got this covered, and I'm excited to get creative with their new Affinity app!
