Thanks to the @figma Drafts change, our bill will be ~$900/m instead of $80/m if we want to continue giving our clients teams edit access to files.
A workaround I'm considering is storing these files on client accounts, and having them give us access (so essentially they cover the bill). The optics are bad though. And even in this case, Figma is still getting +$820/m (just spread across lots of accounts).
I understand we've been enjoying something free until now which should probably have been paid, but I think better consideration for agencies/freelancers who need to work across LOTS of teams is called for.
Hard to not think this is just price gouging.
Huge news for anyone working in tech in the US.
Noncompetes are now banned: not just in California (like before), but nationwide. Very, very relevant for anyone at Amazon (which is the Big Tech that has enforced noncompetes even for low-level engineering positions).
For the avoidance of doubt - there are plenty of people in publishing I met who have their hearts in the right place. This message was for those who try to double their revenue year after year. You don't have to do that. Build more slowly and make your aim improving the state of the art, not squeezing out the last drop. And respect the people making the games. You'll find it brings you more joy.
After 5 years at Airtable I was laid off this week. I have seen hyper scale from 60 to 1300—and now deep cuts.
If you know of opportunities, feel free to connect!
My skills span across product design and engineering, design systems, prototyping, and taking products 0 to 1.
Any developers here open to helping with what my team is working on @Docker ? We want to gather feedback on some exciting new ideas we are exploring for Docker Desktop. You don't need to know much about docker to help.
Reply here or DM me so we can schedule a quick call
As the subreddit blackout begins, I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to the Reddit community and everyone standing up ❤️ Let's hope Reddit listens https://t.co/h6cSYTBZhH
Thanks all for the outpouring of support, it’s made a rough day a lot better.
Per many requests I also added the Tip Jar back to the top of Apollo’s settings tab if you update the app. That’s incredibly kind of anyone to even consider but please feel no pressure.
Dear @Reddit - killing off all competition to your in-house mobile app by pricing third-party apps out of API access won’t fix your app’s terrible #UX.
And if you can’t/won’t fix that, this isn’t the big brain move you expect it to be.
Absolutely horrible news. Not only is Apollo a great app, Reddit’s management is lying about, slandering and vilifying one of the nicest guys in our indie app world while unceremoniously killing off an app he worked on for many years.
Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ https://t.co/HOJaLMW8fx
Just found out via a slack message that Unfold is shutting down effective immediately. If anyone has any leads or knows anyone looking for a Creative Director or a Senior level UI Designer, I am looking for a job ASAP as I have a baby on the way here in October ❤️
