    First google search result:

    Photoshop undoubtedly has the edge over Affinity Photo with more tools, features and functionality for performing a range of advanced editing tasks. These include AI-powered tools, more Layer controls, masking options, 3D image creation and video support to name but a few.

    And this sentiment is echoed by a wide range of opinions further down the search results.

    It may be a competitor in the technival sense, but not in the practical one, where a photoshop user would realistically be able to switch to it.

      if you agree with the opinion that’s fine, but why would you admit to posting SEO spam? XD

        Is anything I quoted untrue?

        Since I haven’t used Affinity Photo myself - I can only rely on the opinions from the internet. I have read a handful, inclusing reddit, but only quoted the one that conveyed my general findings in a concise way.

        If Affinity lacks features that photoshop users commonly use, my argument holds, no matter where the info comes from.

          Is anything I quoted untrue?

          You basically quoted thin air: “more features […] for a wide range of advanced editing tasks”. You probably know more than what’s written there, but from my perspective I haven’t learned one concrete feature that PS offers over Affinity. It’s typical SEO spam, which rewards swaths of text with little to zero information density.
