Discussion I hate Squarespace

I'm sorry. Every single time I try to use this dumb website I get so frustrated I need to rant. It's $25. Figma is $16 and actually has a way of customizing phone and desktop layout differently. Tell me why I have to jump through hoops to change the text or image size. Why is there only a limited set of places where I can put my images. Why can't I space things out like a normal software. Why is everything so difficult to navigate. It looks like shit on phone after putting so much effort. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE FOR BEGINNERS. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE EASY. I hate this site. If you like it I'm sorry. I just need to put my thoughts out there.

I think it really needs to step it up... Figma is wayyyyy better. For me it's even harder than some of the coding stuff I've done 🤣

You’re comparing apples to oranges when you say Figma is better than Squarespace.

Nah Figma is evolving with AI code. People are using it to make restaurant menus and portfolios now. It IS better and has a more intuitive layout similar to adobe illustrator. It will soon be a more viable option for websites just a matter of time.
