Figma's surface area is expanding quickly. Please know we are working just as hard to make sure Figma's fundamentals are strong. One of our key principles is that Figma never gets in your way, so you can always stay in flow state. More on what we're up to in replies...

We want to make sure Figma feels fast, snappy and performs well wherever you are in the world. This isn’t always the case, especially with larger files. And last year, average file size increased by 18%!

Dylan Field1 year ago

Ongoing efforts include: - Optimizing large files for everyday actions like copy / paste, selecting layers, switching pages, panning and zooming - Decreasing our memory footprint so that you can continue to push your visual design without worrying about Figma slowing you down

Dylan Field1 year ago

- A re-architecture of our design systems architecture. This will allow faster instance updating, a more responsive editing experience and faster feature velocity. This is a big project and we're aiming to ship it early next year.

Dylan Field1 year ago

And of course we're always investigating performance reports. Sometimes we miss things. So if something is slow (especially small files), or if Figma isn't working as expected, please reach out via support. We want to get to the bottom of it and keep making Figma the best it can be.

Why do you guys always ignore interaction like it's not core functionality (maybe it isn't). Toos like Play are helping though I think interaction design should be core functionality if figma

Great If not taken care expanding surface area can start looking like a bloat and clutter I have been impressed till now with new features not feeling cluttery Hope you stay true to this path

We are doing our best every day! And I know the Figma community will hold us accountable. Designers are the best audience to build for — they don't hold back!

Thank you for taking perf issue seriously

TriforceKid71 year ago

Yes, the Figma portfolio has grown quite the bit, to remain flexible to diverse needs under a membership model similar to other design software brands. Aside from perf, I find a robust design system experience across products and for client lifecycle mgmt to be key. Thanks!

@zoink Good call to let everyone know you're still doubling down on the thing that works! Although I would argue that as long as the core is stable, you can experiment (many companies had failed experiments that didn't affect the core business)

There is exactly one week left until the key day of the NATO Summit in Vilnius. That means a week until the key moment for our common security in Europe. We are working with our partners as hard as we can to ensure that our common security in Vilnius prevails. It all depends on our partners.

This is just one of the displacement camps set up in Sudan’s River Nile state to house some of the 400,000 civilians who fled RSF militia violence in Al Gezira. This camp continues to grow daily and now houses thousands. We are working to support these people as much as we can, but we can only do that with your support. If you are able to donate, please do so 🙏🏽

.Secretary Markwayne Mullin: "We know for sure that our foreign adversaries, not our allies... have parts that are vital pieces in our voting machines. We know that they can access what they consider the 'key' to the back of these machines. We know they can change voter registration, and your vote. We know it's possible. There's not a question. It's not even up for debate... What we are saying is that every state should partner with us to work to secure this."

Governor JB Pritzker responds to Trump's lawsuit against Illinois: It's a massive effort to distract from what they are doing across the country—to take away things that working-class, middle-class people, families, and the most vulnerable really need. You know, as they come and try to attack the state of Illinois—and that's what they're doing—you know, the lawsuits are against laws on the books in Illinois. Unlike Donald Trump, we follow the law in Illinois. Now, maybe they put up with this kind of garbage in Florida, which is the home state of the head of the DOJ, but in Illinois, we have grit. We are tough. We are strong. And Donald Trump has no idea what he's up against when he attacks Illinois. So we're here. We're going to stay here. We're going to keep fighting—for lowering costs on people, building up jobs, holding back the tariffs—whatever we can do to make this a great state, we're going to continue to do.

"AI gets you to average quickly. Your job is to push past that." Here's my new episode with Dylan Field (Figma CEO) where I asked him some tough questions, including: → Can you teach AI design taste? → Do design systems hurt creativity? → What's Figma's role when code is free? Two-thirds of Figma users are now non-designers and it was super interesting to hear Dylan talk about Figma's future. Some quotes from Dylan: "Design is the new code. You'll be designing in a visual-first way before pushing a pull request right to production." "If you're a PM and you think your job is to make docs and slide decks, you're going to love this new world. You get to make things too." "If everyone agrees with your point of view, then you probably don't have one." 📌 Watch now: Thanks to our sponsors: Replit ⠕: Plan, design, and build with AI agents Linear: The AI agent platform for modern teams

NRG Strong on the lessons they can take away from their loss to Paper Rex: "I would say the major lesson we probably had was the importance of setting up the players for success. I don't think we did as well as we could today. Maybe there's one or two things we could have done better. I think the major lesson, to be fair, is that our fundamentals are strong. We didn't play badly at all today. But because of how we are as a team, it can always come down to very tight margins. We're a team that doesn't generally blow teams out. We're a team that is so, so good at grinding out rounds and doing that sort of stuff. So I think the big lesson is: we're good, our fundamentals are good, we just have to be tight, and we just can't let anything for error slip in. There are lessons to be taken from this. This wasn't a bad loss. You get bad losses sometimes. It didn't feel like, 'Oh, we don't know what went wrong.' No, we know what went wrong. It's one or two small things, and it's things that we can adapt to, and it's things that will be better under different circumstances, and things that we can make the circumstances better for as well. So yeah, I think that would be the big lesson. We just have to be tight in these circumstances and there's no room for error on our end. That's a big, big, big thing."

PRAYER IS POWERFUL, but God doesn't always say "yes" when we ask for what we think we need or want. Sometimes we need to work and earn whatever it is we want/need. Moral of the story: If we practice Christian principles (the principles on which this country was founded) - and learn to count our many blessings, we can find happiness. Most great things in life are created through prayer and perseverance and are not always easy, but one thing is sure - we can learn to be happy in whatever situation even when we are struggling but working to fix our problems. When there is life, there is hope.
