Thanks for the positive feedback Eliot. I just posted it as a story here https://www.designernews.co/stories/90638

I believe posts about design tools are very important but I agree with you that the balance is off. I have been thinking a lot about what kind of content we should all be producing and sharing with each other.

In general, most of the articles have seen are way too whitewashed and aren't messy enough.I just spent the past few days over the break writing down my thoughts. I am curious what you guys think.

Looks very interesting, I will definitely watch that!

Jonathan! Thanks for sharing this! I want all designers to realize that the most misleading proposition is the notion that offering a useless product or service for free to people in crummy situations will save the world.
