When I couldn't get my copy of Adobe CS3 (from 2007) to install on a new Mac (64-bit only), I bought Designer and Photo from Affinity. Up until 2015, I made my living as designer, and was intimately familiar with Adobe's tools.

Unlike everything else available (mostly open source), I slid right into Affinity's workflow without a hitch. Compared to CS3, this was actually quite the upgrade in terms of functionality. I suspect that might not be the case for people using the latest versions.

If I were still designing with these tools day-in and day-out, I might have a different view on Affinity's offerings. But, for my light usage, they tick every box.
