For context, I want to teach myself Graphics Design as I had dropped out of college copule years ago for personal reason but still want to learn it.

I have heard from few people online that they have got Affinity running with Bottles or Wine. I really want to use less of Windows whereas possible but I’m unsure how well it performs on Linux and if there are a better alternative from Affinity and Adobe in general.

    Yes, you can do the fundamentals & professional design work in these applications—there is no reason to be spending money just to “get into” graphic arts. Hugin + Darktable are great for photography too.

          Krita is only usable for basic design stuff. (EDIT: DESIGN =/= PAINTING)

          It’s mainly alternative to CSP, Medibang, and other painting software.

          Definitely not Adobe Photoshop or Affinity Photo alternative.
