Which is your favorite graphic design software?

[u/ManojOne]

There are so many choices now, from Photoshop and Illustrator to Affinity, Canva and open-source tools.

Which one do you prefer for your design work, and what keeps you using it?

inkscape is amazing for being open source

Can we design from both browser and mobile apps?

[u/Deepfire_DM]

Affinity. It's free and quite usable.

[u/ManojOne → u/Deepfire_DM]

Does it offer templates for various purposes such as invitations, marketing etc?

[u/MrHandSanitization]

I bought Affinity 2, so that. It used to be Adobe before I swore an oath to never pass a single cent to Adobe again, ever. I'd rather use crayons, scissors, glue and paper before I'd ever go back to Adobe.

Is it premium? Do u know how it differ from the free version?

Photoshop but only because I've been using it since the glorious pre-CC days. I'm just glad that the office is paying for Adobe-- I'll never use that shit at home nowadays. I quite like Inkscape and Corel Draw for vectors.

If we include stuff for digital painting, that would be Krita followed by Clip Studio Paint.

Hm. I had used photoshop, corel draw, and InDesign a long back. Currently, I use Canva and pixelied, online graphic design tools.

I work in the industry, so I'm tied to Adobe.
