        People really would rather sacrifice their unborn child than pay $20 a month smh.

          Why not? OP probably got a vasectomy, so there’s no chance that unborn son is happening anyway…

            Unethical LPT: Get a vasectomy then offer your firstborn child for material gain as often as you like knowing they can never collect.

              This sounds like the set up for an ancient Greek tragedy.

      Worth noting: Affinity, while not open-source, can be brought to run under Linux. This may be helpful for people wanting to ditch Windows.

          I can’t help with personal experience unfortunately. I think some (a lot?) of people are satisfied, but one does need some tech skills to get it up and running.

          Instructions are out there in various github repos, some of them also link to volunteer support channels.

          Or instructions in German here: https://linux-content.org/so-installierst-du-affinity-photo-designer-und-publisher-unter-linux/
