Designer News
Where the design community meets.
7 years ago from Juan F. Mena, UX + IxD @ Disney
+1 for Affinity Designer.
I am just fine with Photoshop / Illustrator. I just wish Adobe XD or Adobe Design or whatever the decide to call it at launch was better than it is. I was very excited to see an app that might bring a lot of the things Sketch is great at to Windows and Mac. Thanks for the list, I have looked at / used all of those except for Canva. For my work I unfortunately have to stay in Windows. I suspect if I was making a new lifestyle app for iOS most of these apps would be amazing! Sorry if I upset you with my honest opinion about their identity redesign.

Here, I made a list of alternatives for you. A few of these even handle Adobe file formats. Maybe one of these will become a shining beacon of productivity for you and help clean up some of the vitriol in this community.
