adobe moat is complex desktop software Figma is a whole lot easier to replace actually you can now actually with a self host OSS that came up with and bring your own api key from antrophic or open ai

While technically, Figma is just a web app tool. Replacing it would be hard. It has a ton of features, it’s well designed, it exports working wireframe mock ups you can use to demonstrate functionality. It’s good software.

  Yeah but a lot less complex than adobe suite

    Which complexity in general is not a feature, but a mere bug.

      You only says this because you are web(only) dev *acting like web world is not broken half the time

        I say that as someone who knows Photoshop/Illustrator for ~20 years, and Adobe did very little to improve it for almost two decades. It loses to any modern counterpart. Figma, Affinity Suite, Pixelmator Pro, they are much better. So, for me, the complexity of Adobe’s software is rather their sheer incompetence and lack of will to do things better. They think they’re too big to fail, but I hope they’ll just go bankrupt quickly. They deserve it.

What kind of a moat is that? Who says "I want complex desktop software!" ?
- tonyhart7 1y ago
  entire design industry???? like are you sure that there are people out there works using photoshops,premier,illustrator etc that want more complex tool set??? are you sure that these people don't exist??? talk about arrogant

    Not a single person wants more complex tools. They want more capable tools maybe but never ever a more complex on. What is the benefit of increasing complexity except to show off? Are you in design? How does increasing complexity benefit you personally?
    - tonyhart7 1y ago
      Yes because their job need it, same reason why all javascript library rewrite themselves into Go,Rust,Zig etc what else do you think they do that ???? and Yes I do design, not only just operate but learn money with it professionally

        Nobody rewrites software to increase the complexity, but to decrease it. You are either confused, or you don't know the meanings of the words you are using.

        now because you don't have strong argument, you just nitpicking and pedantic I know you just ragebaiting
