LOL absolutely not.
It’s pretty clear we’re fully entering the ‘Find Out’ phase of all this insane AI VC bullshit. This isn’t gonna be pretty. https://mastodon.social/@verge/113073546915361001

@octothorpe lol oof. “The thing no one asked for is why we’re raising the price 300%. Don’t worry you’ll like it.”

@jwilker I mean, I already view Canva as the ‘Dollar Store’ of productivity software, so my estimation of it can’t go much lower.

@octothorpe LOL! I’ve never used it, but it's crazy popular among authors for covers and ad assets. I've several "OMGWTFBBQ" posts about the increases.

@jwilker Yeah, it’s… like deciding that as a professional accredited interior designer, you’re only going to buy from Hobby Lobby.

@octothorpe Ha! I do get why authors use it (the pro tools are expensive and Canvas templates are apparently pretty solid) but yeah, being the bargain bin tool and then raising your price seems.... not wise.

@jwilker I mean, Figma can pull it off because literally everyone uses them, and it really is the best at what it does. It is however becoming vastly less of a value proposition, and folks are looking at alternatives.
There are like, a billion Canva competitors. This isn’t going to end well.

@octothorpe I had such hopes for Affinity

@ytetic I did as well. But the reality is, it's not photoshop, and here it is a jillion years later, and they still haven't caught up to, like, PS 5.5.
Don't get me wrong, they've done a lot… but PS is a REALLY high bar, but if you come for the king, don't miss.
