A diferença real
Penpot 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). Penpot counters with Open source and self-hostable and SVG-native design.
Affinity Designer's Achilles heel: no plugin ecosystem — what ships is what you get, and the community is small compared to illustrator. Penpot's: still catching up to figma on polish and plugin ecosystem — feels rough around the edges. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Conclusão
If you value vector and raster in one app and designers que se recusam, go with Affinity Designer. If defensores do open-source que matters more, Penpot is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
