        Seriously, how will that kill competition? I could probably tell 10 free tools from the top of ma head.

          Figma is no freebie tool. It’s an industry standard. People train in it and use it for their living.

          There are many free tools, sure, but not many tools that are accepted in corporate environments.

          Figma is the current trendy choice for design software in big tech. But give it a few years and it’ll change again. Tech is full of followers.

          Personally I find it to be absolute garbage. It’s so much harder to navigate and use as a non-designer than something like zeplin.

            That could perhaps be explained by the fact that Zeplin does not have in any way the same goal as Figma.

            Zeplin is not a design software, it’s a presentation and sharing platform. Yes, the one-trick pony is easier to navigate than the software used to create the damn ponies, that’s not much of a surprise.

              I literally said I’m a non-designer so why would I know about the design side? Nice job being a fucking asshole about it.

                The topic is competition in software for designers. I have no idea what the fuck you think your point is, but I’m pretty sure it’s irrelevant.
