What? You want all the software companies you depend on to go bankrupt?
Canva is free for basic features and reasonably priced if you want features that cost them money such as 24/7 phone support, access to their stock artwork library, storing up to a terabyte of documents on their servers, etc.
I get the hesitation - we don't know what they're going to do with the affinity suite, but I wouldn't immediately assume it will be ruined.
Given the context I don’t think they meant profitable as “The software makes a profit” but that the acquisition would be profitable given the costs to acquire it. The acquiring company likely has no attachment to the software itself and only sees a bunch of cows (customers) for milking.
