Just got this email. It's better news at least but I'm not totally convinced by it just yet.

Just bought Designer a week ago. Wouldn't have touched it had it been a subscription. I love it so far but it will be my last purchase of any Affinity software if they move to a subscription.

I've sent them an email, not too hopeful I'll get any information out of them about their pricing model going forward though.

Edit: They replied but they just gave a copy and pasted statement from the press release that Designer V2 users will own in perpetuity, nothing regarding future plans.

MasterHound ,

That's certainly a more hopeful response. Fingers crossed they keep to their word with V3 too.

There has to be a happy medium between not isolating your kids while also protecting them from what is a highly corrupting environment. Maybe this is just hindsight, but I look back at my unfiltered internet access as a kid and am pretty pissed off that my parents didn't get more involved.

That's it, it's just the userbase size. I still unfortunately have to type 'Reddit' after any question I throw at a search engine but that is on the useless search engines and not indicative of Reddit being a great platform.

MasterHound ,

That's insane. I know it's a ball ache to move them but I'd have taken that thing right back and gotten a refund.

MasterHound ,

Hope this is rolled out to other countries and not just the US.

MasterHound ,

Oh nice! Knowing corporations though I'm just trying to figure out how they are going to screw us on this.

I still use Authy, I know it's frowned upon in the privacy community but it's worked well enough for me so far. With them shutting down their desktop app though I see no reason not to switch to Aegis at some point in the near future. Just a pain in the backside setting it all up again as Authy doesn't let you export your 2FA.

MasterHound ,

Exclusive to the American market I presume /s

They have to make it as accessible a headline as possible, especially when most don't read past the headline anyway these days. The average person probably doesn't have much of an idea as to what 125TB looks like in real world use.
