”While Adobe and Figma shared a vision to jointly redefine the future of creativity and productivity, we continue to be well positioned to capitalize on our massive market opportunity and mission to change the world through personalized digital experiences.”

I vehemently don’t want Adobe to achieve any of these things.

Does figma export to xaml?

Figma sounds a LOT like "fityma" in my language, which means foreskin.

figma is great, seeing that adobe doesn't get to ruin it is even greater

If I read it right, Adobe is going to pay Figma a billion dollars since the deal didn't go through. Good for Figma?

Lol right. Here's a cool bill for an investment we can't control. Seems legit assuming it is
