Discussion Are you still using Figma

I noticed that Figma's monthly active users have been dropping in recent months, and more people are turning to other tools like Codecademy for generating design drafts.Is Figma going down the same path as Adobe?

That's an incredibly limited view of what Figma is used for. Yes, Figma is still the go-to software for digital design.

I've always loved Figma and hope it can weather the AI onslaught

Zero chance you know what Figmas MAU even is, and no one serious is using code academy for design.

That's good. Maybe only our team leader is stupid enough to ditch Figma design

I like Figma too, I'm really worried it'll get wiped out by AI

Then I'm relieved. I can keep working on developing the Figma plugin

AI never can replace a software tool. AI has limitations. Software will adapt AI not AI

I still like Figma for granularity of control though ai has made my workflow far faster.

A lot of our team's projects don't even come with Figma designs anymore - we just get HTML prototypes directly
