TeryFlip reacted to Bit Dissapointed in AI in Affinity
This could be you - and a few others in this thread with black and white opinions - in a not so distant future:

TeryFlip got a reaction from sam weiss in Affinity A-I app
The state that AI is in is the worst it will ever be. We will never be able to escape it as there's too much money to be made off of it. Artists can boycott all they want, but they'll be back. They need to eat and compete somehow. There are artists who use the tools to their advantage and are winning.

Instead of Hard Mix blend mode (with fill color), I would use the Black and White Adjustment and then Posterize Adjustment with exact number of tones to be used with the effect, and then apply the Gradient Map. Having a HSL filter on top of that allows quick change of hues. Applying Levels and Shadows & Highlight Live filter would control general distribution of shadows, midtones and lights, and Median Blur could be used to smoothen the shape edges.

Not to forget, for the dirty texture, you can use a texture you like (you can find a lot of cool stuff at https://texturelabs.org/) lay it as a layer above the image and apply a blend mode to that layer.

Hi!
Didn't watch the whole tutorial, but the basic thing of the effect seems to be a posterisation. So take a look at the "Posterise" filter in Photo.
You could also try the "Threshold" filter. You will get a black & white image then. You can colorise it with the filter "Recolour". You have to increase the "Lightness" there to recolour the black areas. With the other two sliders, you can adjust "Hue" and "Saturation" of the wanted colour.
But G'MIC is a verry fine plugin, I can recommend too.
But this all will end up as a pixel image anyway. If you want to get a vector image, you could autotrace your image with f.e. the free vector graphics program Inkscape. Affinity Designer can't do this at the moment. The advantage of vector graphics is that you can up- and downscale them without a loss of quality.
