nik collection by DXO won’t work with AP, you need the nik by Google. there’s already few threads regarding this plus one on DxO forum requesting the nik collection to work with AP and other software.
here’s a link for discussion
 

cool video, thanks for the link

i added them manually after installing the old free Nik and just the googe folder for the plugin search, haven’t changed anything to that before installing the new Nik. I did used the authorized global otherwise they were not working with AP.
 

here’s the list I found for Affinity plugin compatibility

I am no geek on computer to figure out this but, how or what does it take to make those plugin working?

looking at AP supported plugin, luminar isn’t on the supported list.
maybe it would be a good thing to update the list and get some stuff compatible, making a better life away from Adobe Ps?

si la fenetre Bienvenue de Affinity apparais pas par défaut en ouvrant AP, dans les menus du haut/aide/bienvenue.
plusieurs personne enleve le crochet de bienvenue, dont moi  alors c'est la seul façon de la voir encore.

Affinity Photo's 'native' RAW developer does not by default do any noise reduction; along with tonal curve & exposure bias these adjustments can be enabled or not in the Develop Assistant (the same assistant mentioned in the second blog post). Apple's Core Image RAW developer does these adjustments automatically (& does not tell the user that it has or offer any way to avoid them).
 
If the blogger had done a bit more research he might have figured this out but apparently research is not his strongest suit. When doing searches like these, the wisdom of this "meme" might be worth considering:

terrific, thanks for sharing!

I beg to disagree. I very much like the current icons. To me they look much much better than Photoshop's "sterile" ones. This is a software for visual arts, not a CAD or 3D software that has to look "sharp" and "monotone". This might sound a bit strange but one of the main reasons I like Photo better than Photoshop is that it has a more "artistic" icons and overall feel than Photoshop.

Hey mikerofoto, 
Love the outcome in general! And yes, it depends on the lighting, the subject, the composition... the results will be totally different from shot to shot. I like that you've taken the presets further by fine tweaking and combining them, my personal favorite is Copper View, looks very cinematic. Love that one!

thanks for that, I got some photos I can run that on :)
