Out of the loop for this one. Is Affinity a software for graphics editing, which was regarded as an alternative to Adobe, but it now acquired by a big corp?
Pretty much
They had a set of programs that rivalled Adobe Photoshop and similar software, good enough to be used by the industry. They differentiated themselves by having everything available with a one-time purchase instead of Adobe's monthly subscriptions.
They got acquired by a big corp that's known for annoying subscriptions, so people are worried that the software won't be developed in the same way anymore
