(See https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/press/newsroom/canva-press-release/) Any guesses how long before Affinity users are training Canva's mass-market product to replace them? The only safe harbor for ownership of your work, data, and tools is #opensource. It's not too late to learn and contribute to @inkscape @GIMP @krita @Blender et al
