I think the subreddit has just became a spam graveyard as well.
Volunteer community mods might very well be a good idea. I check this site about twice a month now and it's just...sad.
Since Invision Studio didn't make a dent, they've started putting all their good features and updates behind enterprise presumably for sustainability. Otherwise, yes, very competitive field.
I think we should ask ourselves why there aren't very many non-CIS non-identifying males interacting here. It's never really felt like a safe, inclusive space for all, and there is a pile of evidence to support that suspicion.
A lot of folks just recently were able to get corporate buy in for Sketch, I doubt most will be able to swing the same for Figma anytime soon in a large company environment.
I don't disagree, but what are ya gonna do.
I’d recommend following design team accounts of products you like, anyone from Basecamp, low-key grunts from non-unicorns and then you’ll get enough recommendations to snowball. It’s a pruning process. I tend to avoid freelance “celeb” designers tho because they mostly tweet lifestyle / self help porn.
My answer is that Twitter is a better resource if you follow the right people who bubble up the stuff worth reading. I don't care about the community aspect per se because I find web folks to be mostly strange.
I thought we were regulated into cookie acceptance. Not sure if that's any designer's fault.
