That reads like an enshitification announcement email. I've been dreading any announcement from Affinity since they've been acquired by Canva.

Hopefully it won't be about moving to a web app/ cloud or changing to a subscription model or AI.

Love the example sentences from the Sumerian grammar book I'm currently reading:

Not something I'd see myself using everyday, but very useful nonetheless!
