Oh I thought V2 came out before the buy. This is too bad. I will be switching to Linux before the Oct 2025 deadline and hoped I would have at least somewhat functional design, photo editing and publishing suite. GIMP, Inkscape and Scribus can’t seem to get interfaces in check. Conformity, iconography and layout need to be aligned throughout all apps. I know different people developing but still to win over users their needs to be something to bridge the ideas. I’m just ranting at this point.
I understand where you are coming from as far as the other applications are concerned.
In my case if I need affinity, I have it installed to a windows VM I set up with KVM/QEMU.
I might go through the configs needed to get it running locally at some point, but I just don't have the time right now.
