"I wish Affinity worked on Linux"
Surprise! You can install the latest version of Affinity on Linux in just 15 minutes:
https://github.com/ryzendew/Linux-Affinity-Installer
And although that is a community-run project, Canva are considering officially supporting Affinity on Linux:

@chriswood@mastodon.design I hope that's true! I'll try it again. :)

@chriswood@mastodon.design Oh, that's good news, that they're at least considering supporting Linux (something I cannot imagine Adobe ever saying). With all the progress that games have made over the recent years (thanks to Steam) I think it should very much be possible to get these programs running on Linux (if they need to run natively is another question …).
