  1. I had some unlucky timing in trying to migrate from #Adobe to #Affinity. They shut the store down pending a major announcement at the end of October, right after I started my trial. Well, a bit of relief: They re-enabled any trials that were started after September 20th, and bumped them to a full 30 days, so that will get me past the big news, whatever that is. Now I can keep working on my migration in the mean time.

  2. Voy a darle otra oportunidad a #scribus, a ver si tiene ya todo lo que necesito para maquetar el nuevo libro.

    Los cuatro o cinco últimos los he montado con #affinityPublisher y, oye, muy bien. Un software bastante comprensible, potente y de precio razonable.

    Pero me jode tener que usar el macbook también para eso.

    Y ni putas ganas de ponerme a echar andar Affinity sobre wine.

  3. Oh, btw I got #AffinityDesigner, #AffinityPhoto and #AffinityPublisher running on Fedora and they are working fine. But I didn't do anything serious with them yet. If they run fine in the long run, I will definitely switch to a Linux machine.

  4. What's some (hacky) way to get some semi-scripted output for #AffinityPublisher? Its Merge capabilities seem rather early 90s, so not even simple IF conditions.

    So if I were to design a #ttrpg spellbook, where there's an icon or color code indicating the magical tradition, I have to manually format 100+ sections?

    I might need to take a closer look at either Typst, or my vows against Adobe…

  5. #Affinity の単体でよくセールしてるけど、結局公式のユニバーサルライセンス買うのが一番コスパとしては良い気がするんだよな〜
    1.5万くらいの金額で買い切りですべてのアプリ、すべてのプラットフォーム(macOS, Windows, iOS)版が使えるし、

    * Publisher の #StudioLink を使って Designer と Photo も行き来しながら作業しつつ
    * アートボードとかレイヤーごとに複数の設定で一括書き出しとかしたいときは Designer
    * RAW 現像とかレタッチに特化したペルソナを使いたいときは Photo

    みたいに Affinity 3 アプリを全部使ってこその魅力もあるから…といち古参ユーザーとしては思う…

  6. The more I attempt to use #AffinityPublisher, the more convinced I am that no one involved in this product has ever actually done desktop publishing, or if they have, they'e never used Pagemaker, Quark XPress, or InDesign. The choices made in this app are baffling.

  7. I've been thinking about #Software, specifically #Affinity apps #AffinityPhoto and #AffinityPublisher, and how they differ from #Photoshop and #InDesign most specifically.

    The place it's most obvious is the treatment of Layers - Photoshop’s layering is a very direct recreation of the sort of cell stacks anyone who has done traditional animation would understand. Even things like Effects Layers and Masks, they're very of the physical. (1/3)

  8. Die #Affinity Programme haben ein frisches Update erhalten - 2.6 bringt nicht nur optionale (!) genrative-KI Features, sondern auch Verbesserungen beim Erstellen und bearbeiten von Inhalten für Screenreader - Barrierearme PDFs werden dadurch mit Affinity Publisher wesentlich leichter zu erstellen sein als bislang:

  13. @ItsThatDeafGuy I use #AffinityPublisher and the rest of the #Affinity suite. Several other people here do as well.

    Why do you ask?

  14. Dear Affinity, any thoughts why your Publisher app starts attempting to contact every page on my reading list/bookmarks/browser history including my health insurance provider on launch?

    (You cunts.)

    (Did I mention I fucking hate capitalism?)

    PS. This is an app downloaded from the Mac App Store and it’s got a lovely, comforting, blue, Apple-approved checkmark to let you know that data is not collected. So it’s safe. *phew!*

  15. @kevindreher You may be happy with Affinity Publisher depending on what you need to accomplish. #affinity #affinitypublisher

  16. Bit the bullet and got the #Affinity suite. Mainly because that while I love the #FOSS tools I have been using since I cancelled my #adobe package, there is some functionality missing there that has made my work processes slower and more difficult.

    Plus the black week price on the Affinty V2 universal Licence package was pretty damn good.

    Any #Fedtips for someone who is a complete noob to Affinity, but who is pretty well versed in #Photoshop, #Krita, #Inkscape, #Illustrator etc?

  17. #AffinityDesigner 開いてて Picture Frame Tool を使うために "Edit in Publisher..." メニューから #AffinityPublisher を呼び出してるときに時の数秒、いつも一人でニヤニヤしている。

  19. Spending a little time tonight installing the Affinity V2 suite of apps. I'm very proud to say that I've de-Adobe'd myself. I've had a license for Affinity Photo for the last six years, so I'm not too sad about having to upgrade again (and, y'know, I don't really HAVE to). Five or six years between major paid upgrades sounds about right.

  20. CW: Angry about Affinity

    #Affinity was supposed to be a BETTER option than the shitty companies, but they're releasing a version 2 you need to purchase separately AFTER they let version 1 break.

    This is not okay. This screws a lot of people over in hopes of getting them to pay more money for an upgrade. The only fix they offer for the v1 problem is turning Windows Updates off. Which, yeah....

    #AffinityV2 #AffinityPublisher

  21. Are you affected by the change from V1 to V2? I'm really curious to hear from people for whom paying for the new version is a burden, or at least not an automatic "yes."

  22. Surprised I haven't seen chatter in the indie #ttrpg scene about #Affinity publishing V2 of its software, especially with no discounted price for upgrading from V1 to V2

    50% off sale on Affinity software right now for Black Friday. Not FOSS, but a great, inexpensive, alternative to the big players in the #design, #photo and #publishing software markets. I've been using all three of their applications for years and absolutely love them!

  24. Affinity Publisher in der Buchproduktion

    In der aktuellen Ausgabe der #Zeitschrift »PAGE« habe ich einen kurzen Artikel, in dem ich einige Vorteile von #Affinity #Publisher im Umgang mit Bildern aufzeige.

    Gerade in bildlastigen Projekten hat das enge Zusammenspiel von Publisher, Photo und Designer große Vorteile, um Bilder und Grafiken zu bearbeiten, ohne das #Layoutprogramm verlassen zu müssen.

  25. Any Affinity Publisher experts out there willing to help a comics creator who is drowning in a RAM issue while trying to export a large PDF?

    (I have already tried upping limits and what not - it seems to be something that I, or the software, is fundamentally doing wrong)

  26. #Affinity の Font Manager は #AffinityPublisher にしか搭載されてないのか。
    やはり基本は Publisher でスライス一括書き出しとか現像とかの特定用途だけ Designer / Photo 使うのが効率的かな :tony_smiling:

  27. unwählbar ist bei der Europawahl auch „#diepartei“, weil auch hier Martin #Sonneborn irlichternd unterwegs ist und zum Beispiel dass Wagenknecht-Schwarzer-Manifest unterschrieben hat.

    Die #Querdenker Szene ist derzeit stark auch auf Anti-#Windkraft-Kurs.

  28. Day 2 of my @affinitybyserif Publisher trial and I have yet to find a difference between what it can do and InDesign can. This looks like a great alternative to Adobe’s domination of the market.
