    Thanks OP. Been meaning to test these programs out for a while.

      Im amazed that with ownership by Canva, they are making things better, even the EOFY pricing was lower than i paid for the bundle deal.

      • cnut on 09/07/2024 - 09:10

        Oh, just you wait. It’ll succumb to the same enshitification that most stuff is plagued with nowadays.

  • Scrooge McDeal on 09/07/2024 - 07:33

    I was editing the deal and I didn't see you posted it. If you want you can borrow the title that I have posted above.

    Thank you, I will happily get rid of Adobe if this gets the job done.

    • avinit86 on 09/07/2024 - 07:50

      Just need an alternative to Lightroom and I’m set.. but can’t find anything close

      • saveye on 09/07/2024 - 08:47

        Yeah, I trialled it a couple of years ago, I have to say, I went back to Lightroom.

    • cmyk on 09/07/2024 - 09:06

      This doesn't come close to Adobe for pro tools. It's sort of a middle ground tool that's not the industry standard for now. Will wait for a while to see if things change with the new ownership

    • AutomationGuy on 09/07/2024 - 09:24

      It has replaced everything that I needed Photoshop for. I have been using it for about 3 years now and have only on a couple of brief moments wished for something that I remember Photoshop had that this didn't.

      Any hack to own a non for profit account?

      • axyh on 09/07/2024 - 08:15

        Don’t. This is a gesture to help out non-profits, abusing it is a way to ensure this kind of thing no longer occurs.

            @Bii: So therefore you're abusing it by using it for 'personal use'.

            • Bii on 09/07/2024 - 09:59

              @ldd-mn: So those non-profits don't use it for "personal use" on some occasions?

      • AngoraFish on 09/07/2024 - 09:22

        No, because it will be a per-school license, which is a standard Canva arrangement. You won't just be able to use a .edu account to get a free copy.

  • kungfuman on 09/07/2024 - 07:53

    ooo 137 to own it once off no subscription bs so good!!

      It really is one of the great bargains in the photography world.

      I’ve been using Affinity for years. It took a few months to rewire my brain to the subtle differences from Photoshop, but now it does everything I need without fuss, and without subscription.

      • Crownanchor on 09/07/2024 - 08:27

        Is it also good, that it is now Australian?

        • axyh on 09/07/2024 - 08:35

          I’ve actually been worried about the acquisition, because Serif has always been great, and acquisitions usually lead to software enshittification.

          That said, any changes I’ve noticed so far have actually been for the better… but it’s early days.

          • Crownanchor on 09/07/2024 - 08:37

            @axyh: Yes, that what i also thought, and how Canva is subscription based and what they were thinking with the acquisition. At least they have a good name in the industry, even though Canva is not my sort of software.

          • cnut on 09/07/2024 - 09:19

            @axyh: You’ve read my mind.

            I think it’s still early days. I don’t know exactly what Canva’s operating model is, or whether they’re generating enough revenue already to be sustainable, but I’m just dreading the enshittification of Affinity.

            The cynical part of me thinks it’s just a matter of time till it’s turned into a subscription model too and then eventually priced through the roof once Canva notice people have become reliant on them.

            • Crownanchor on 09/07/2024 - 09:23

              @cnut: The subscription model is what i am also dreading. But I think Affinitys customer base is here because of the subscription free model, they will have to churn over most of their customer base to grow. Unless they are going to get revenue from the current base. This may lead to another company to take over with what Affinity has done bringing a non subscription model to compete with Adobe.

  • nightelves on 09/07/2024 - 08:42

    Does the download link get email to you?

  • lawyerz on 09/07/2024 - 08:45

    Been testing out alternatives to Adobe including FOSS options and will test this out as well

  • sureyoucan on 09/07/2024 - 08:49

    Trying to activate it.. it keeps crashing trying to activate.. ozbargined?

  • lordra on 09/07/2024 - 09:09

    Can I stack this with my lifetime licence? 🤩

  • denserham on 09/07/2024 - 09:16

    This let me use on an account that already had used the 7 day trial. I just opened the app on my computer and it gave me a button to click for 180 days.

    • Crownanchor on 09/07/2024 - 09:19

      Yes, this is correct, if you have previously used the trial, you can still get the free 180 days in this deal.

  • 4rd on 09/07/2024 - 09:40

    Thanks OP, upgraded from Affinity Photo V1. V1 lasted some 8 years which equates to ~$7 per year compared to ~$14 per month for Adobe PS/LR. Affinity V2 was released in 2022 which suggests there'll be some 6 years before V3 is next released, the 50% discount made it a no brainer for me to upgrade.

  • Albino Man on 09/07/2024 - 09:47

    Access all three Affinity products on Mac, Windows and iPad

    Darn - As someone that has made the switch to Linux about a year back, I've been on the lookout for a good quality, and powerful, photo editor, as well as an illustrator replacement… Adobe don't make anything for Linux, and it looks like no one else does either. 🙁

  • alexyfyf on 09/07/2024 - 10:10

    definitely not going back to adobe. i'm on an enterprise liscence for this, and it is enough to accomplish my task and much cheaper from what i heard.
