Agreed.   I'd rather see a solid Adobe competitor than another washed out Corel*.
 
*Corel offers some products on linux. 

One version of what these days is known as a 'meme' that has been posted all over the Internet:

Well perhaps... if the Affinity range was not already on Windows and Mac, but surely less so if is cross platform and linux.
 
The main argument is that people who have linux now want this app, but much less so that people will move to linux because of this app. There are those here who are keen to stop using Windows or Mac which they only use for a few apps like Affinity, but they already have linux. So given our starting point of support for Mac OS & Windows & iPad I'm less convinced "a single killer app (Affinity) could get a lot of people to use Linux" if we supported it too. It's much more reasonable to believe the other reasoned arguments that Affinity would be a success on Linux with those people already using that OS.

It's still good software.  Bargain compared to what I'm spending on Adobe.  And it does some things better than ps.
