NEWS: Adobe has announced it's buying Figma 👀
According to multiple reports including Bloomberg, Adobe and Figma are set to finalise a deal for the purchase of Figma for a whopping $20 billion!
What do you think of this deal, does it make sense, do you wish Figma would stay independent? 🧐
Update: Since writing this, Adobe have confirmed that they are in fact buying Figma, Figma will remain independent and Dylan Field will remain as CEO.

Wow, that is a surprise and not a surprise at the same time :)
Figma defeated them all!!
We already pay full subscription for Adobe and Figma separately. After the merge, I assume, Adobe will ditch XD and replace with Figma. As a result, we'll likely to pay less invoice :)
But today Adobe Inc: 318.57 USD −$52.17 (14.07%)today
I expected to see Figma independent, it sure was a big competitor on the rise. Now even if they say it will be independent, I'm sure that as time goes by Adobe's hands will be seen, the time will come when they offer only subscription.
It's a monopoly!! 😭 Similar to Disney when it bought Fox.
totally agree with arron o leary "I do personally hope to see Figma independent, it's amazing having such a strong competitor to the previous monopoly on design tools from Adobe!"
adobe is charging me a lot for useless apps
