I love all the Affinity products so far but the RAW part of Affinity Photo is where the suite falls a bit short in my opinion.

Things I miss most when compared to Lightroom are:

- the ability to quickly create circular and gradient masks and apply a set of setting to them

- Edits are not saved into a .xmp file like Lightroom does. Once you developed your image and closed the Raw editor, there is no way to apply the exact same settings again if you want to tweak something later.

I think a Lightroom competitor was on their list (but for a while now, hope it arrives soon!)

Apple used to have Aperture, and until they stopped development, it was miles beyond LR for the core "RAW library" workflow. I hate that Apple killed it.
