I‘m sure that Bohemian Coding are _very_ scared of Figma. Just read the comments here - many switch from Sketch to Figma now. Multi-platform is more important than ever, with alienated Mac users switching to Win/Linux, and the iPad Pro becoming a part time computer for many. Having real-time collaboration also doesn’t hurt - Sketch cloud is way behind this.
If they don’t act now, fast, they will soon become irrelevant.
- owenwil 8y agoI'm in the industry in the Netherlands, and as far as I've heard, they think it isn't even the same game. I guess they're about to be surprised.
- manmal 8y agoWhen my super hip designer friend suddenly pitched Figma instead of Sketch, I knew that things are getting serious. He has been a strong proponent for Sketch for years, but not any longer.
- ichik 8y ago> real-time collaboration also doesn’t hurt No, that's not the icing on the cake. That's the primary reason for why design teams are switching to Figma. This changes so much, you wouldn't believe: primarily because it means effectively side-stepping version control pains. With Sketch you either have to use external software (Abstract, Plant etc.) or resort to manual “check-outs” while working in design team. With Figma this problem simply doesn't exist.
- manmal 8y agoThat’s a great argument, thank you.
- cgag 8y agoI opened this comment section just to see if there would be an alternative I could try on Linux. Going to look into figma when I home.
