James did a thread here in the comments about AffinityonLinux, I think its a compatibility layer made to let it work proper (at least on Mint afaik).

Guh someone made a fix for Affinity in Wine not saving settings, one of the main lingering bugs with it: https://github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux/issues/93#issuecomment-3505581754

I tried AffinityOnLinux and it runs *way* better than it used to, but I'm getting graphical glitches which still make it unusable for me. ​:brdSad:​

I started to learn to use the pen/pencil tool last night in Inkscape, it's really nice because it turns my scrawly handwriting into something I can tweak and adjust into something neater.

Have you tried the AffinityOnLinux installer? How's your experience on that so far?

Je confirme par la présente qu’Affinity Designer / Publisher / Photo marchent sous Linux en suivant ce tuto :

Huh. Sure enough, using a downloaded Lutris script from AffinityOnLinux folks, Canva Affinity installs very nicely on Linux. I haven't put it through any paces to see what crashes it yet but being able to open my .afphoto files was huge enough of a win!

AffinityOnLinux : exactement comme son nom l’indique
AffinityOnLinux ambitionne tout simplement de permettre l'utilisation de la suite graphique gratuite Affinity sous différentes distributions Linux..

Hi everyone, I've started a petition to make Linux support of the Affinity Suite a reality! As a creative frustrated with Windows 11 and the Mac ecosystem, I want to try get community support to make this possible!

J'ai l'impression que le nouvel Affinity fonctionne bien mieux que la v2 sur Linux. (Avec ce script, du moins : https://github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux )
Mais côté perfs, on reste toujours bien en dessous de ce qu'on peut avoir avec une VMware Windows, chez moi.

New Affinity Studio works on Linux with the setup I already have with Affinity Suite v2 ( https://github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux ) I like when new app came out and does not break its previous compatibility #affinity #affinitystudio #linux

Faire tourner Affinity sur Linux est maintenant incroyablement moins compliqué, grâce à Mattscreative qui a tout compilé dans une appimage.

@anthropy It's Wine with patches specifically designed to make Affinity work: github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux
So I would assume that if there was a more simple solution, the community would've taken it. ​:drgn_pat_flat:​

@anthropy It could be, but I have no way to know because the program doesn't give me any details.
I got the top with the env vars from the AffinityOnLinux repo in an issue comment by the maintainer, so it's probably a known tip by now. Who knows what they're talking about in their Discord […]

AP2 does work but certain functions (in my own testing of the affinityonlinux repo guides) would cause hangs or crashes, like saving a file or exporting as PNG (both of which I would consider Basic Functionality)

@gamingonlinux.com it may not be gaming but if you're an artist there's an actively maintained guide on how to install the #affinitysuite on Linux.
