  1. of course, that too. I am going even further I am trying to look for something that actually works on linux, would be neat
  2. maybe not revoke in legal terms but basically make it EOL shut down activation servers etc is practically as close to a revocation as it goes, also I need to read affinity's EULA again but many of these EULAs in general kinda allow the company to revoke "for any or no reason", so not sure if affinity has that inside
  3. sure they know what they buy, similarly to many other companies, but the problem is not what they buy but what they do with what they buy. They dont buy affinity to make it better they buy affinity to make money, that can include putting affinity features into canva and letting affinity die, monetizing affinity to hell and back or a mixture of both. or but I cant judge that if they compete in any way it's a neat way to get rid of competition, as has been done often enough. literally this. While I havent been in the business at all really, I'd say this is the case across businesses, when companies acquire each other it generally ends up badly.
  4. sure they would be out of their minds to do it considering it's more or less the only real advantage but in pursuit of quick money long term be damned a lot of stuff happens. and canva as a company working with subscriptions it's kinda ugly. also statements like "There are no changes to our current pricing model planned at this time", where there is no indication of any guaranteed times for how long v2 lasts or how long they plan to keep the one time purchase model other than "at this time", which can mean anything as well as literally nothing at all. also it's not nesecarily about believing the management of specific companies, but just considering how these things kinda always went the scepticism is real and warranted, or can you list any examples where a good thing "joining the family" of something with clearly red flags ended up good?
  5. let's be real tho in 1 and a half years a lot can change especially with the current state of the world. I aint a fan but I wouldnt immediately call it a lie just because things changed.
  6. the account site looks basically the same, that there's more below really wasnt obvious, I mean who expects more options for windows especially after having been taught that af2 comes as msix. I never thought they'd make exe installers. altho calling it msi and being an exe is weird lol I mean an exe and an MSI are really different things
  7. yeah looks like this. only an MSIX for windows, a DMG for mac and QRs for ipads.
  8. affinity 2 only seems to come with an msix in the downloads, I cant seem to find any exe files for af2.
  9. everyone is looking at each other and taking what they think is nice. And I would highly doubt that MS and mac decided to make things like virtual desktop or clipboard history or whatever part of their OSes just because something like XEROX or whataver it was called had it 30+ years ago. they are likely looking at currently available systems and what features users like there.
  10. It has certainly been mainstream enough to not die.all of the other systems died and I doubt windows or mac would now look at extinct OSes to copy from rather than a system that sure is in the minority but well and alive
  11. steam has been brought up many times. is it so bad to not accept it as an answer?
  12. well linux introduced those features to the mainstream when it comes to OSes, and yes while the precise question was what started in linux after that he said more precisely that they came on linux "before PC and mac". where with PC obviously windows is meant. because that's what ppl have been brainwashed into assuming being the same.
  13. maybe linux didnt "invent" virtual desktops, clipboard tracking and several other things but among the big 3 (Windows Mac and Linux) linux was sure the one that has had it the longest, and likely improved upon it enough that it was brought to Windows and mac. like sure xerox atari and whatever may have been earlier but none of them are really around nowadays.
  14. I at the very least voted and commented on the reddit threads. I am not a fan of registering everywhere with my real name so I have not registered for wine, but I hope at least the reddit stuff helps.
  15. Likely helps that English isn't my native language (and insults are rarely taught at school). The only way i have heard gimp before was gimping an image as in "badly editing" it. But that it's an insult to disabled ppl actually hurts. Regarding the off topic issue, yes talking about gimp in the context of affinity photo and Linux is imo okay but let's not take it too far.
  16. Wtf? How that? I am classified as disabled and have no idea how gimp could be bad.
  17. okay, checked that link saying that the sets here in the forum are not the full library versions... kinda confusing
  18. well I think he means in regards to the server's OS.
  19. thanks. i was working on this with someone else, and apparently he got the idea from a tutorial that the transparency gradient which is used on other places which needs to be uniform across them can be set as some kind of template that way. I just made a mask rect, that way it can be easily copied over.
  20. Hello, so I have a project and for some weird reason all new shapes seem to have an inherent gradient-thing that seems like a mask which I cannot remove and any fills I apply will be only applied upon that. it's really weird and frustrating tbh, as I have no Idea what's going on.
  21. https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/24/21302213/apple-silicon-mac-arm-windows-support-boot-camp both sides basically give a big middle finger. Apple doesnt want alternative boot options apparently and Windows Licenses ARM only to OEMs.
  22. okay. well I would also love affinity on Linux, especially with W10 being what it is and 8.1 only running till the start of 2023
