I'd love to see this succeed, but while Figma is pretty much free for most cases.... ?

  Yeah, if you are a freelancer and don't interact much with tech teams, I'd say yes. But Penpot is open source, SVG based, you can go cloud or on premise, meant to engage with devs also. I think we've got a different approach here. But yeah, it's quite a challenge. So what :)

    I just got a Figma Educational license two days ago. I'm likely going to just work with Penpot, instead. I'm so glad to see you guys here. It's certainly worth the development, considering how quickly prices raise at Figma when working with teams.

      That's the thing with proprietary tools. You're always always trapped. To be completely honest, when we were considering Penpot's huge roadmap we told ourselves "even if it's just the tool for education, universities, etc, that'll be fine". It turned out to be much more than that, but I see where you're coming from. And hey, if you'd like to fiddle with the code yourself or install it locally... be my guest.
