Happy with our Nvidia Shield TV Pro on the main TV and Onn 4K Pro on the secondary TVs.

In both cases with the superb Projectivity Launcher, so we don't need to see the default Google front end and any promoted content.

It's perfect.

Guessing that's Hyde Park which is a less dense green in the middle of London!

Affinity just sent out another email. Amongst other things, this includes a pledge to continue offering a perpetual licence.

Hmm, I hope so, but the temptation will be to price in a way that disincentives buying the product and pushes people into a subscription.

I will not be subscribing if they do.

Time will tell. Anyhow, here is what they have said:


The Affinity and Canva Pledge

By the Affinity and Canva Teams

We are committed to fair, transparent and affordable pricing, including the perpetual licenses that have made Affinity special.

We share a commitment to making design fairer and more accessible. For Canva, this has meant making our core product available for free to millions of people across the globe, and for Affinity, this has meant a fairly priced perpetual license model. We know this model has been a key part of the Affinity offering and we are committed to continue to offer perpetual licenses in the future.

If we do offer a subscription, it will only ever be as an option alongside the perpetual model, for those who prefer it. This fits with enabling Canva users to start adopting Affinity. It could also allow us to offer Affinity users a way to scale their workflows using Canva as a platform to share and collaborate on their Affinity assets, if they choose to.

Thanks for the review. Added to my 'to watch' list!

I'm not the OP, but I had wondered the same thing. After already seeing up the other *arr's I couldn't work out the point of Prowlarr.

Re your comment about resource constrained, I have just started using Sonarr and Radarr on a Pi4. They seem to work OK. Had installed but not set up Prowlarr yet. Hopefully that wouldn't slow things down if I used it to sync the other apps.

I've never had a Facebook account, I've never had an insta account, but I do use WhatsApp.

Pretty much everyone I know whether old or young uses WhatsApp. When I was travelling, a lot of apartments, hotels and booking services used it too.

Seems to be the one messaging app that cuts across all generations, countries and also the Android/IOS divide.
