Affinity Designer vs Linearity Move

Affinity Designer is a vector graphics editor developed by Serif (now owned by Canva) for graphic design, illustration, and UI/UX work. Originally sold as a one-time purchase alternative to Adobe Illustrator, Affinity became completely free in 2025 following Canva's acquisition of Serif. The application combines vector and raster design tools in a single workspace with professional-grade features.

Linearity Move is animation tool from Linearity for turning vector designs into motion graphics without a traditional timeline. It provides comprehensive features for design workflows. The tool is actively maintained with regular updates and strong community/vendor support.
