Canva needs to tread carefully. A ton of goodwill related to Serif is based around its relatively small and caring nature combined with it NOT having a subscription. Kinda the opposite of Canva really. If it messes up what Serif built, quite a few folks may well just switch back to Adobe (unless they’re using iPads because Adobe still isn’t exactly winning on that platform).
Also: slightly grumpy that another British success story looks set to be devoured.
