@domesticetch Indesign is much more powerful for layouts, Illustrator has much more vector editing features, etc. Using Adobe means u have more options when designing. Only learn Figma if u need to do lots of UI stuff and design systems.
LinkedIn is getting more irritating each day now with everyone and their mom trying to be thought leaders, posting obfuscated ChatGPT word salad five time a day
@thuveners@claudioguglieri I looked in to that once. This guy made some of the designs for lapka https://t.co/vWMAnt9H4C (now Meta)
Vadik started to work at @DondaCreate after Lot2046
Ruki might have been involved in some of the design/production and they still operate in China https://t.co/zySsmNQSn7
we really messed up when we made "marketing" = slapping some shiny a/b tested veneer and value props on an otherwise uninteresting thing. that's literally optimizing for mediocrity. if the thing doesn't have an interesting genesis story that justifies its existence, pls kill it
@claudioguglieri Yeah it's really dull, no character at all. Has the look of something designed by a UX designer. I appreciated the direction (focused or minimal or whatever) but not the execution. A missed opportunity
@ae_play All the apps with smart features like Notion just add too much overhead imo. I dont want to think about what templates to use and stuff like that. IA writer with some basic markdown works fine for me
@rsms I can imagine! My early thoughts using Figma was that it's such a benefit using web technology since they can develop and push out new features faster, but I guess it just presents different challenges than native apps and takes just as much effort.
@rsms There must be an enormous amount of effort put in to making Figma feel so snappy and native? For me at least it’s much faster than Sketch when panning and zooming and stuff like that. Kinda surprises me
