My first thought is... how is this free if it's similar to FIGMA?
It sounds like they have basically bundled in a lot of their own icons/svg stuff and that's their business model? But even then building such an app seems like a huge investment if it's just a platform to sell your icons. So I must be missing something.
And how does it compare to Penpot?
- mattkevan 4y agoI have it installed, and while it's handy for opening Sketch files if you don't have a subscription, basic things like text handling and typography are rough. It's useful, but I wouldn't try and actually design in it.

- Icons8 4y agoFounder here. You have correct observations and ask the right questions. 1. We do promote our content. It's not enough to support the development. 2. We could afford a generous freemium. Unlike Figma, Lunacy is resource-efficient and has no pressure from investors. 3. However, collaboration requires cloud, so we'll charge for cloud storage. TLDR Lunacy will be a highly generous freemium.
