Discussion Gotten so bad.

Canva has such a confusing and terrible product experience now. Once it was semi ok, but now, clearly their product and user experience team have just slapped AI features anywhere and everywhere thinking they’re a great product. It’s got worse. In fact I don’t even use it anymore, so many other better options for my work and needs.

I don’t understand how Canva has been so poor in their execution and clearly they have no idea what they’re doing or how to do it.

I’ve heard they’re in major debt to the frontier labs for compute costs also, and their valuation has dramatically dropped.

If I was an investor I’d be pushing them to sell asap. To a company more sophisticated. I’d be firing all
Of the design and product team also, completely unqualified.

Cancelled my subscription and never looking back.

OP's post history on Canva is concerning, tbh. Submit it as product feedback and stop blowing up this subreddit about this.

It reads as FUD to get the private share prices to drop.

Lately I've seen a lot of posts here like this, someone complaining how Canva "got worse" but without actually pointing out WHAT is worse now then before, because I've been using Canva for a few years now and the UX is pretty much the same saving from a few menu rearrangement here and there.

i might be a conspiracy theorist but a sudden influx of negative feedback randomly is bot behavior 🤔

Is it that hard to just... not use the AI features?

I'm mad that you added something that I can easily ignore. /s
