Anyway, I think Affinity Designer and Photo are great software. @Bloque9, I recommend Affinity products to Windows and macOS users since it is an affordable alternative to being permalocked into a certain cloudy subscription service. Indeed, Affinity Photo is so good that l know of astrophotographers who use it to process their images. I happen to use Ubuntu Mate on my desktop PC and Linux Lite on my laptop (see pic below) and I'd welcome Affinity products that work well with Wine. That reminds me, you're welcome to check my posting history where you'll find out what l use and what l suggest to try out with Wine. Quote

As I know - WebAssembly is based on 32 Bit - so the limit should be 4GB... Maybe some day with wasm64 the limit will push Quote

We should set the target at $500k and see how much interest we get. I'd back that. Quote Linux user - willing to purchase a new license the instant there's a native version for Linux.

If Serif thought there was a chance of making the same profits from Linux as there is from Windows, Mac and i-pad versions, they would probably do it. Like you say, they are in business to make money!
