Same company acquired two very similar apps.

One required a $14/year subscription, the other $90/year

So they "carefully considered this decision" by delisting the cheaper one for the more expensive one. Boom, 500% cost increase

Don't want to pay? Well, your files are hostage. Stop paying and lose your data.

Ps: remember the lie "subscription for software assures constant updates"?

The announcement serves as the final nail in the coffin for one of the iPad’s oldest and most popular sculpting apps, which hasn’t received any major updates since 2023.

I can't get into gimp, it's just too unintuitive and clunky imho. I've switched from PS to Affinity which is a one time purchase, got it 50% off when they had the "fuck Adobe" sale last year

I love affinity, wish they'd support Linux and android though. They have an iPad app but no android tablet app.

Yep, Linux support will become more of a problem for me when Win10 reaches end-of-life. No way I switch to 11
