That gives me pause. And it's not quite what I said.
When you try to integrate everything into the same application, you have to make compromises. Even if they have separate workflows, you're not optimizing a tool for a specific use. You're creating something general-purpose.
InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator are separate applications. That allows each to fully specialize in what it does best. And each one does a hell of a lot of things that would simply bog down the other two applications.
The applications need to integrate with each other. But no single application can be excellent at literally everything.
Edit: oh, Affinity is made by Canva? Yeah, I'm not touching that shit. No reason to trade one evil empire for another.
See, that's a false dichotomy.
Modern corporate America demands expansion and growth. But expansion and growth do not need to be required for innovation.
That's where Adobe is a victim of the vulture capitalists who've taken it over.
