Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Affinity has a garbage rating on WineHQ unfortunately. But maybe GIMP + PhotoGIMP, Photopea, or even Photoshop could be an option.

What work stuff are you using Windows for?

Affinity has Pantone support built in and can switch between publisher and photo mode flawlessly so the workflow is better than inDesign/Photoshop. As for work stuff, I'm stuck with Adobe products so it's more or less non-negotiable. Most of what I do is done in inDesign so I think Scribus would be the closest alternative, but I'll be trying everything I think. It's probably 5 years since I last used linux as a daily driver so I'm keen to see how far the software has come.
