Remember kids. It is always morally correct to pirate adobe products.
I'm a graphic designer and honestly, been thinking long and hard about switching to Affinity. Affinity Designer even seems like it would streamline most of my workflow.
I use Affinity sometimes, but PS, AI, & AE rule the roost because they are just better at most tasks.
PSSm: Apple Motion flies way below the radar and can do a LOT of things better/more elegantly than AE.
I delivered two seasons worth of graphics for a network show, and 85-90% was done completely in Motion.
I switched to Affinity! It's great. Not all of the features are there but most of them. It's also much less buggy and the interface is way better thought out.
They don't make a replacement for After Effects though, that's why I'm stuck with it for one project.
That's my experience. Less features (like still no object blending in designer), but much faster and smoother over all. Admittedly I haven't used an Adobe product in a few years, but when I first switched I was amazed at how much more performant the affinity suite was.

Affinity designer is a great tool if you are looking to use it. I can't say for the newer versions due to reasons, but some 4 years ago that I tried it, it absolutely blew me away. Easy to use, lots of advanced features, stable, great pricing. And they got a v2 as well, unfortunately v1 customers will need to rebut though at a discounted price.
I really like Affinity, but I’m using it casually for my photography hobby
