It may take a bit, but I'll probably transfer over to KiCad for work projects that I'm the only designer on once I get a couple of projects under my belt with KiCad 6.0. In particular, Altium designer does not only board schematics and layouts, but RTL and software editing (some in schematic form, I believe), simulation, large component libraries including drivers, and so on. I'll probably transfer over completely for personal projects (I've been doing more and more personal projects in KiCad over time with only PCB->Schematic back annotation holding me back from full transfer-that's fixed in 6.0 with the new file formats).
