#figma sent me an email yesterday telling me that they're partnering with #openai as a subprocessor for their "new #AI features".

in totally unrelated news, have you heard of #penpot? it's a great design tool that's completely open source, and they're even on mastodon: @penpot

check it out! penpot.app/

Thorleifsson sought confirmation from Musk that he could answer without breaking his confidentiality agreement. On Musk's approval, Thorleifsson laid out what he's done at Twitter. One of his recent accomplishments, according to Thorleifsson, was to save the company $500,000 on a contract with the online design application tool, Figma. He also says he was the lead on "all active design projects."
Musk replied with laughing emojis.

@colinstu Figma is/was pretty good design software in the vein of others like Sketch, except that Figma worked with native web technology like SVG which meant that you could work on it online, like Google Docs. sadly, they've been acquired by Adobe and are dead set on a track to enshittification, it seems
