Isn't the Affinity Suite a bit more than that? Isn't there also publishing, photo editing, creative illustration, and everything concerning visual design?
I really can't be happy in seeing a whole community replaced by a few people whose main interests seems to be their presence on YouTube.

Thanks, Ali! I’ve known that aphorism for a very long time, but I didn’t know about its origin until now.

Said otherwise: if you want your tools to become universal, you involve a mass of contributors into the discussion. Asking to a few of them will just give the opinionated view of the selected ones, that may have been selected after the opinionated view of the product manager.

Will Paterson has a design studio and, considering all I have watched from him in the past, IMO really knows design deeply, not the usual random person just making some cute logos. Has a solid business, for all I know. I know less about James Martin, but he has been designing for 20 years, involved in the creation of a thousand brands.
At the very least, I would say they are not just influencers.

Which is indeed a good thing to know, albeit not hugely surprising.
