I think the saddest part of the Figma acquisition isn't the possible death of a tool I enjoyed using, it's the death of my interest in learning more about design. I have been an engineer for many years and started to do more design work with Figma. I even enrolled in a design bootcamp. Figma inspired me a lot and sparked an interest in design. This acquisition has killed it for me.

That’s exactly how I feel. I tried to use some Adobe’s products but I failed because all of them have a steep learning cure and their UI/UX are complicated too. By contrast, Figma made my life easier.

Despite what Adobe wants you to think, design is bigger than them. Keep at it, maybe read up on physical product design where there is less tool talk.
