The Affinity and Canva Pledge
(affinity.serif.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
inkscape needs more contributions, both financially and in the way of code.
The new advanced snapping system is as good or better than Affinity, path effects are an experimental feature that allows you to do batch shaping of a paths nodes using logical and mathematical parameters, CMYK support has landed and Inkscape is charting it's own SVG standard specifically for vector graphics, design and drawing.
The font handling was my biggest gripe, but even that's gotten better.
Besides the lack of art boards and certain other "nice to have's", I think I'll be switching to Inkscape as a replacement.
