One line of speculation that seems pretty convincing is that the "creative freedom" branding is meant to tease the release of a free tier with limited functionality, with seamless upgrades to subscription tiers for additional functionality.

That's Canva's model, so it makes sense that they'd expand it to Affinity. Given that they recently acquired two AI companies, though, it's also a pretty good bet that integrating AI will be part of the "value" proposition.

Needless to say, I won't be paying for any version of Affinity that makes generative AI integration compulsory.
If they sneak it into a v2 update, I'll just delete the whole suite.
And I definitely won't be switching to a subscription.

I switched to Affinity because it was the Brother printers of publishing and design suites. If it ceases to be that, then I'll jump ship in a heartbeat.

Apparently, the new Affinity Discord is just totally unmoderated on the weekends, which has not been lost on at least one racist/homophobic troll.

@lrhodes I normally like the Halloween month to be spooky, but that's quite a bit too much!
