They used to be anti-Adobe and claimed they’d never stoop to their level. The new free version offers Canva Premium plan, which unlocks cloud content. It’s only going to get worse from here.
The writing was on the wall when Serif sold the product to Canva. We already knew Canva used a rent seeking model at the corporate level, so it didn’t really matter what promises they made about what they’d do with Affinity.

I haven’t followed this software and company before, what do you mean, what is the catch?
Adobe doesn’t offer any of its software for free accept acrobat reader, where you get nagged about payed features constantly, but it’s easy to ignore.
