While a lot of people are switching to Sketch from other prototyping and design tools, I think it's getting attention for a couple of other reasons: * Sketch are a darling of the Mac software scene who turned their back on the Mac App Store [1]. They were one of the top grossing apps, won an Apple Design Award from Apple itself, and yet they still found the Mac App Store situation so abysmal that they decided to go it alone. There's been a string of hardcore Apple-faithful who have quit selling via the App Store recently. * They're now updating their pricing to a semi-subscription plan, which has been controversial when other companies have tried it (see JetBrains [2] and Smile Software [3]). It's a topic that may be concern to Sketch users, and also of interest to Mac developers who are still searching for viable pricing models.
