Affinity has been bought by Canva, to compete with Adobe.
It was of course a matter of time before Affinity would outgrow its status of sympathetic small-scale Adobe alternative, and be sold for large proceeds.
Canva is into AI. Hopefully Affinity will get some useful AI-powered image processing tools, like upscalers and denoisers, but Canva will probably add generative shit and introduce subscriptions sooner or later.
Originally from #Kentucky. #Queer. Hate noise pollution. Big fan of old #stories well-told. Fell in love with #fish first, then #plants, then #insects. My love-hate relationship with #sports goes in 5-year cycles.
Looking to hire a #designer for a logo / branding project.
In short, I'm finally creating my own site that will host my blog, some mini courses and pages. Everything will be donation based and go directly to #opensource.
A constant theme will be taking old computers, and fixing them up with #linux to give them out locally to people in need.
Anyone know someone who is experienced in Power Platform #development (Power Apps, Power Automate) and #SharePoint Online, bonus points for experience migrating on prem SP (including #InfoPath, SharePoint #Designer, #Nintex, and #JavaScript) to #SPO, and is a US Citizen? Bonus points again if they hold a #clearance already.
#Introduction I am Saara Kamppari-Miller, and I am a #designer geeking. When I was studying #HCI in grad school I bought a Geek mug, and so when I needed a new online handle, this mug gave me inspiration. I am currently an Inclusive #DesignOps Program Manager in the Intel #Accessibility Office, meaning that I am helping UX teams adopt #InclusiveDesign practices. #Gardening is my favorite way to relax and get away from technology. I absolutely love living in a walkable and bikeable neighborhood.
I am currently re-watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine all the way through, every season from the beginning. I am halfway through the 4th season right now. And one thing I was not prepared for was the amount of and intensity of the vaporwave energy coming off of this show. I mean wow lol
Maybe a little late to finish them in time - but "Be my valentine socks set" is such a cute #knitting pattern, it will work at other times of the year as well.
