Affinity also has desktop publishing capabilities, when you switch to that mode in the software.
Before Serif was acquired by Canva, the equivalent functionality was in Affinity Publisher.

It was a pretty ok product when I used it a couple years ago, but I think there are much better free pieces of software that can replace it

Say what? Is the creation of text boxes that float text to each another supported in word? Is correct Setup of pages supported?
Maybe I am outdated a little bit on Word news, but Publisher's purpose was for a certain use case, and it did it well. I understand that nowadays people rarely create magazines, but it's still the thing. And I'd like to be supported in it.
The alternative for DTP is Scribus, but the UI is really giving me headaches, and there is no proper support of copying formatted text...
