I despise Figma, so for the first time ever I'm really excited for an Adobe takeover because the sooner this app dies the better. Having Figma open in a single browser tab on an Intel MBP will burn a hole through to the centre of the earth. The "desktop" Figma is a janky, laggy mess that opens in a tiny window every time and eats resources like nothing else. Copy and paste between Figma and almost anything else is horribly unpredictable.

That has been my experience as well - really don't understand the love for it, I run on a very powerful machine with 1GB fiber internet, and it always, always feels like a dog to me whenever I am forced to use it. Not sure Adobe will make it any better, but just don't see why it is so popular in the first place.

  Also had a bad experience with managing fonts on Linux because of its web-based architecture. All in all using Sketch as a single user was a smooth and straightforward experience, wehreas using Figma was an extremely frustrating one. I'm pessimistic about Adobe being able to make it any better.

  Same - whenever I get a Figma link I open a whole new browser because within a few minutes I know it's going to crash and I have a limited time to veeerry slooowly try to extract the information I need. This is on multiple machines, i7, 32gb RAM, good enough GPU to run modern games.
