Shameless self-promo: I did livestream the release and reveal on YouTube. Though I haven't watched the replay yet, so no promises about if it's any good 😂 I had so much fun though!

I spend a lot of time on foundry websites trying to figure out what features a typeface has, and what sets it apart. I think @rosettatype.bsky.social is getting really close to perfecting the online specimen #typography #fontfeed

Also, their new typeface Aeropa PE is very nice 👀

Affinity seems confident that users will be content with whatever this announcement is... saying "it will be worth the wait", "there's a lot to like!", and "hold tight! You'll like what's coming"

I will breathe a sigh of relief for now, and enjoy v2.6 in blissful ignorance for the next 4 weeks 🤞

✨ Placa in Typography News No.17 ✨

It’s always great to see Placa in spaces that celebrate type design. This time, it has been featured in Typography News No.17, an online bulletin highlighting type news, published by Jectives
😊 You can catch it at minute 0:47:27 👉 www.youtube.com/live/rEoP4w4...
🚩 The purchase options have been removed for Affinity V2. If this was just a new version, it doesn't make a lot of sense to disable buying products for the next 30 days.

Users on Reddit and Discord don't seem happy about waiting a full month to find out what "creative freedom" looks like.
October 30 (the final day of Adobe Max) 👀

Are they dropping V3? Time to finally see the fate of Affinity since the Canva acquisition 18 month ago

Oh man. The Discman remake hit me in the feels!
The most recent Typography News where I made the case that Cracker Barrel's rebrand was actually a decent improvement.

I also looked at new releases from @abcdinamo.bsky.social, @keltroughton.bsky.social, Playtype, and Brandon Nickerson. #typography #fontfeed
