I liked Abstract's rigor in keeping things in order but it also added a lot of overhead of commit, write, merge, etc.

Also the biggest hurdle I had with Abstract was no layer level diffing/conflicts. I know they were working on it though.

Figma allows us to move a lot faster but you do lose some of that workflow rigor that something like abstract forces you into. Like you said different teams with different needs.However, looking ahead in the next 5 years, sketch is going to have a hard time staying relevant imho.
