Makes sense.
I wanted to try the Affinity suite but found it doesn’t work on Linux. I also tried running it via wine but had massive issues. I’d gladly pay if they release it for Linux. Until then, I’ll use free alternatives.

I looked into the wine installation in Linux, and it seems that there is a custom wine setup that generally works, but I do professional graphic design, and page setting/layout as a side gig. I don’t need the hassle, or risking losing work, even with auto saves.
I started a thread about Affinity in Linux in 2022. It’s still quite lively.
The main idea was that considering the growth of Linux, they could get ahead of Adobe in that space and tap into a market space that is pretty in crowded.
It’s still a fairly active thread.
Affinity still says that they have no intention of doing a Linux port.
