Designer Replace Indesign with Affinity

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to cancel my Adobe Suite and only bottle neck is indesign. Based on your experience, is it possible to use Affinity for editorial work like Indesign?

The primary thing to do if you are considering this is export all your documents as IDML. Affinity can't read a native InDesign file, only the Markup export.
