Reminder: Typographic get-together TODAY
The first call we had was inspiring, so why not have another one? There's no agenda, just an online hang-out to get to know people in the community and have a chat about our journey. Welcome! See the event in the calendar: https://www.skool.com/typographicnorth/calendar?eid=64615854d47141b6bca7e73a24e400d1

A new Affinity
The largest competitor to the Adobe Creative Suite has been Affinity. They've had their three apps in direct competition to Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator: Affinity Publisher, Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer. In contrast to Adobe's rather pricy subscriptions, Affinity offered affordable one-time purchases. Now, they're releasing something completely new: ONE app for all these areas of work, simply called Affinity. They've also been adopted by Canva, and claim to offer their new app completely for free! With AI as an add-on. I'm excited to see how this will impact designers of all sorts and levels. It's good for Adobe to actually have some real competition, because once we enter a universe such as Adobe's, it can be hard to break out of it. On the other hand, I see a lot of scepticism in the comment regarding what the catch is. It will be interesting to follow the developments. Will you be exploring the new Affinity?

Our first Typographic get-together is in the books!
Thank you, @Iliana Nalbantska and @Erick Aroldo for an interesting and fun conversation in our first-ever Typographic get-together! It was good to hear about our different backgrounds, interests, projects and experiences. This sort of open conversation is something I have been hoping to have for a while here, and I'm so glad we finally made it happen. We'll do it again soon! Perhaps with an informal agenda and plenty of room for detours. Have a great weekend, everyone.
