I bought the suite for a cheap $82. kicked Adobe to the curb, and it felt great. Up and running in a couple of hours, small learning curve. Everything makes sense, fast, streamlined, excellent!
As an Adobe user that's put in lots of time, energy and many projects with the Adobe CS versions as well as when they transitioned to Creative Cloud, Affinity Serif caught my attention probably a few years back. It's the lack of a comparable video editor or any video editor in Affinity's line up of apps that makes me hesitate. If they honestly had a video editor in their suite of apps I gladly would of pulled the trigger on them a few years ago. Even if I switch from Adobe to another creative software company I still need a suite of certain kinds of apps: A video editor, graphics editor, Audio editor and maybe some kind of media encoder or After Effects like program. But yeah if it was just money and Affinity had these same line up of programs then Adobe would of been left in the dust years ago.
Yea can totally agree with that! Maybe with Canva's support we can see an Affinity video editor someday! That would definitely complete the package imo.
If Canva's involvement(Who I am no big fan of, but my dad is) helps Affinity to develop additional apps faster especially a video editor that can compete with Adobe Premiere then it possible could be a good partnership with Canva and Affinity.
Its really funny because some creative software is free and some is like 100 bucks a month XD and they are usually really similar, I hope adobe has more competition
I knew when I was in college using adobe that I was gonna have to find a replacement once I finished, found affinity and bought the bundle it took some getting used to but it was worth it then wasting my money to the adobe subscriptions.
@@leena.things hehe yah and Adobe Photoshop it let me cancel but Adobe Premiere Pro wants to charge me an $80 fee lol please I wanna get out of this toxic relationship with Abobe lol
Yes I know 😅 I was praising affinity for not taking our card info when you do their free trial. I was not saying affinity is another subscription service, rather I was mocking other companies for always asking for card info when doing free trials.

I enjoy your channel and you stay dropping gems!! Thank you
@@FranchesterWilliams aww tysm!!!
Nice! I'd like to learn more about that suite to make a picture book of my art. No jokes, folks, Affinity is good stuff, okay?
that canva acquisition really soured my otherwise near-perfect experience with affinity. definitely staying cautious still
yes yesss, we will just have to wait and see now 😅

AFFINITY DID WHAT??? *Runs to the website to check if still available*
Girl, literally your content is God-sent. Earlier today I was freaking out cause Adobe was too expensive for me currently and I use those for my biz
omg love that!!!

Adobe preying on students is honestly cruel 🥺
I’ll slam dunk that like button and hit repeat if it’s about quitting Adobe!
🤣🤣💕
I am not usually pesimistic but, when it comes to trusting corporations I sure hell am sceptical about it. Anyways, thank you great video.
never a bad thing to be cautious!
Hi Leena. Is the 50% sale for Affinity over then?
I have a free subscription to an affinity for your videos.
🤣🤣💕
The cutest
Does anyone have advice on what we should do about ai? It makes me so upset and i honestly can't calm down :(
I'm sorry you're feeling that way. It might help to take a break from the internet for a bit 🥺 sometimes it's better to just step away.
@@leena.things I think so too, might spend more time drawing in my sketchbook ❤️
Oh no I bought mine already 😅lol
i'm sure they appreciate you for it! 😅
@@leena.things hehe yah and Adobe Photoshop it let me cancel but Adobe Premiere Pro wants to charge me an $80 fee lol please I wanna get out of this toxic relationship with Abobe lol
@@leena.things but adobe is being petty and only let me cancel photoshop and is trying to charge me $80 cancellation fee to cancel adobe premier pro 😭
Me too, I got it last week ha 🙈 but it’s still an amazing deal and I’ll be leaving adobe after 24 YEARS at the end of the month! Freedom lol!
another subscription service ? 2:03 affinity is a 1 time purchase
