Sketch

• andrewl-hn 8y ago
  Sketch is almost 8 years old, and was released before the AppStore Mania died out and before Electron/CEF became a de-facto app platform for desktops. Windows has other market leading software that isn't on a Mac. 3ds Max comes to mind.

    If you are going to say an 8 year old program is tired, then why mention 3ds Max? It has to be 20 years old by now.

      Grandparent comment pointed out that there are no recent big Mac-specific AppKit/Cocoa-based blockbuster apps in a post-Electron world. Parent mentions Sketch and a counter-example. I pointed out it wasn't really valid. Mentioning 3dsMax was indeed inconsiderate of me, because it didn't add up to a discussion and subverted it instead. My bad.

    Though lots of designers are migrating to Figma, which is web-based and works just fine on Windows. (I'm a designer and just moved to Figma after 4 years on Sketch and am definitely seeing lots of peers do the same)
