Disappointing as always : ( no shop no finity - fusion fucking sucks anyways
I run Linux on my plex server and have set ones up for friends, introducing them to Linux in the process, but my daily driver will be a Mac until there support for either of these apps suites. I use photoshop. Illustrator, and indesign so much that I can’t be without them. I’d be willing to try switching to affinity’s suite if it had Linux support, but, as it stands, my MacBook Pro is my main machine.
At least macOS is unix. It’s pretty nice once you figure out how to work around the Apple guardrails intended to keep this kiddies from breaking things by accident. Although, I would prefer the ability to build a nice gaming rig, and right now, linux is a better gaming platform than the Mac is, which really makes me sad.
Also: I am in the process if switching to affinity to stick it to fucking adobe.
Gotta say, so far I'm liking it a lot. All 3 of them are like 90$. I'm currently on a 180 day free trial.
