@Houl I don't trust Canva's Affinity at all anymore. It wouldn't be that bad if I could just go back to older versions as soon as I notice workflow-breaking bugs, but once you save a file in a newer version it can't be opened in an older one.
By the way, there's one more thing in Affinity V3 that they haven't fixed to this day: if you select multiple objects, the layer panel scrolls to the first element you selected. This is a pain if you want to select many elements across a wider range because often you can't ctrl+click without having to scroll back to where you want to be. Every single time.
What I'll miss from Affinity V3 is that it truly unified the different products under one UI. Publisher V2 does this to a degree, but the features that are accessible depend on the active persona. For instance, you can only modify a text box's style in Publisher in the Publisher persona, but not in the Designer persona or Designer itself, even though Designer can render styled text boxes.
@a1ba@HurricaneWeasel I think it depends on the way people immerse themselves in the story. I'd imagine spoilers are annoying for those who actively wonder and think about what's going on instead of just taking the story in like I do.

The quality of my makeshift halftone filter is actually better than the one built into Affinity V3. It doesn't have those weird artifacts on pixel boundaries.
Number 2, palettes. As you can see, I can use the first palette just fine. Then I switch to the test palette and nothing works. I press the button to add a new color dozens of times. If there were colors in there, I couldn't open their context menus either. I switch back and things work there.
I'm bored, so here's a video to show what is broken in Affinity V3. The layer with the orange marking is a symbol, meaning that it can be used in multiple places and any changes are automatically synchronized. This works at first. Then I copy the layer and delete the original. Now it's broken. Normally, if a symbol gets detached (i.e. the synchronization is broken), it's marked with a dashed orange line. This isn't the case here, and copying such layers shouldn't detach them anyway. So I can't edit any of my drawings now without worrying about breaking them like this.
