Yeah, major bullet dodged there. Just when I started actually appreciating Figma and heard about the Adobe plans, I automatically felt like I just need to hate Figma to not get used to it too much — just in case.
Affinity is great and gets better, Figma stays great and gets better, for now at least, all fine with me. No Adobe logo anywhere in sight — good news for me.
”While Adobe and Figma shared a vision to jointly redefine the future of creativity and productivity, we continue to be well positioned to capitalize on our massive market opportunity and mission to change the world through personalized digital experiences.”
I vehemently don’t want Adobe to achieve any of these things.
Lol, this screams "we didn't want it anyway!!"
I am thrilled to see an example of regulators actually putting work into blocking monopolistic mergers. Hopefully this is the beginning of many.
The CMA in the UK thankfully is independent of parliament, and therefore has a fighting chance of actually being competent.
Figma? What's Fig ma?
figma balls
Fig ma balls.
Figma is a collaborative web tool to prototype user interfaces with vector graphics.
balls lol
Does figma export to xaml?
Figma sounds a LOT like "fityma" in my language, which means foreskin.
even yummier
figma is great, seeing that adobe doesn't get to ruin it is even greater
If I read it right, Adobe is going to pay Figma a billion dollars since the deal didn't go through. Good for Figma?
Lol right. Here's a cool bill for an investment we can't control. Seems legit assuming it is
WOOOO
