Der wahre Unterschied
Canva has a free plan; Affinity Designer doesn't. Budget-conscious? That's your answer.
Affinity Designer stands out with Vector and raster in one app and One-time purchase (no subscription). Canva counters with Drag-and-drop editor and Brand kit.
Affinity Designer's Achilles heel: no plugin ecosystem — what ships is what you get, and the community is small compared to illustrator. Canva's: not a real design tool — no vector editing, no prototyping, and exports aren't production-grade for print. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Fazit
If you value vector and raster in one app and designer, die adobes abo-steuer, go with Affinity Designer. If nicht-designer, die schnell professionell matters more, Canva is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
