I think many Figma users are concerned with Adobe's purchase of Figma. I've already removed Adobe products twice from my life (professional and personal) and would prefer to not have to do it again.

That said, I can't see the acquisition being a problem for competition in this particular space. It's not hard to imagine someone just making figma-but-different and becoming the next big thing. There are also countless other existing options.

It would be very hard to build a product from scratch that competed with Figma. Even if you just straight-up stole all their product choices, features and UX and so on, the engineering under the hood seems pretty high level. Anything is possible, but it would not be trivial.

Figma started in 2016 and competed against giant companies (like Adobe) who had been around for decades, and did extremely well. The competition in this space is never ending. They just keep coming. The competition regulators seem to consistently misunderstand the industries they are regulating.

Small startups these days regularly train cutting edge LLMs. I don't think Figma is that far out-of-reach.

Training LLM and developing webgl app that works like magic on any devices with no visible performance problems on any level of zoom, dynamic, interactive, smart, lightweight is totally different level of engineerinf skill requirements.

Training LLM is like a child play compared to it.hack , even NEETs from 4chan are training erotic roleplay LLM for fun.

Like what? In my neck of the woods, everyone uses Figma, XD or Sketch.
