They locked your files?  

 Locked as in I can’t share them. I can still edit. 

 That's not good.  

 Ugh I’m so tired of their teams shit 💩 

 Is there an alternative?  

 No not really. They have a monopoly on the design software market. Anyone who says otherwise doesn’t know wtf they are talking about or don’t do any serious design work. 

 That sucks, I figured that as I have been looking into design a little and that's all I've really seen.  

 The alternatives suck. 

 Yeah, by the way, the auto zapper seemed faster for me yesterday than before.  

 I like it that way though, dangerous for new plebs who don't know what it does, sats we're flying out really fast.  

 😬😬 

 Do any viable open source figma alternatives exist? 

 No 

 https://penpot.app/ seem promise 

 Nah 

 Does Penpot work for you? I’ve switched from Sketch to a selfhosted instance for the design stuff I sometimes work out.  

 I tried it once and it was severely lacking. 

 How long ago was that? 

 I want to say last year perhaps 

 I’ve switched three months ago and they recently released a new major version 2.0 

 Ok I’ll take a look 

 I can try to share a project with some assets with you if you like I’ve never used that feature so far 

 this is great news because figma sucks 

 Figma is the best design tool on the market. 

 ok, we get that you love it, it sucks though
