True but this argument is non sequitur. Figma as mentioned earlier executed beautifully, no doubt. But the blog narrative is somehow projecting that Figma had vision of WebGL vis-a-vis browser based graphic tools, which I know is not really true and somewhat akin to history is being written by victor. Instead, Dylan & I talked about the transition from Desktop to Web 2.0, and whether now was the right time to bring graphic design to the cloud. John Lilly & I had discussed a hypothesis about this while I was at Greylock, and it was one where I had come to have conviction. The basic premise was that the combination of Web 2.0, Social, and Mobile had finally created the possibility of building truly useful and user-friendly collaborative software in the cloud... This is also disrespectful to the pioneers - nary a word was wasted on people who came before Figma on browser as well as desktop. I wish there was atleast one line dedicated to 'Sketch' software - early version of Figma UI was copy-paste of Sketch one.
