Canva’s business model is subscription, are there any plans to change how Affinity is sold?

There are no changes to our current pricing model planned at this time, with all our apps still available as a one-off purchase. Existing Affinity users will be able to continue to use your apps in perpetuity as they were originally purchased – with plenty of free updates to V2 still to look forward to!

For a company that used to boast about combatting Adobe's subscription, and advertising a buy once own forever attitude , it feels especially spicy that they now joined a freemium company

Anyway here's a random tweet from when Adobe was trying to acquire Figma
