@IrishRail can’t seem to get the accordions to show any information on the Irish Rail website? Also when I click ‘print’ none of the actual information shows up?? Trying to get info on Accessibility & Station Access for Malahide.

@BillBadbody Hello!!!!! Are you an Ostrich?
@KNEECAPCEOL are the ones NOT Bono. Pfft the ignorance!

@anothercohen @Kia_Worldwide solved this one, with their new design team. Award after award for the last 3 years.

@NickADobos Dude, this is a joke. I'm not punching down on anybody.
Go and touch some grass.

@DannPetty Nothing gets you more excited than ‘a new policy’.
English

Theory: Dribbble is intentionally running every last designer away to save money and slowly shut down without anyone noticing.
Dribbble@dribbble
Starting today, we're introducing a new policy that requires clients and designers who meet on Dribbble to make and receive payments through Dribbble. This is to protect both parties and mediate any issues during the course of the project.

I just cannot imagine watching this stuff. Foreign world.

Nobody even noticed, but television has been peaking lately.

@howardcjohn @DannPetty The problem with Framer is that, while the tool is pretty amazing, it’s essentially a glorified hosting company. If a client has specific backend requirement, Framer isn’t much use. Ultimately focus on the designer and the dev will follow.
English

@DannPetty I LOVE Figma, but Framer is pretty impressive if you want to go straight into design / “dev”

Photoshop wasn’t efficient enough at “product” design so Sketch came and took that market share.
Sketch wasn’t available to everyone and lacked the Silicon Valley connections so Figma came along.
With Figma’s collaboration, in-browser tool and its well connected bright smart founder—it was perfect for Silicon Valley.
XD and Studio were just too late to the game as everyone was transition tired and it was clear InVision was on its way out with lack of innovation and XD was still just an Adobe product that should have existed years prior but they move like dinosaurs.
So Figma had zero competition besides late leavers of Photoshop.
There’s been a sleeper company come along like Canva, they took the everyday graphic designer route away from Adobe, however, many pro designers now also use Canva for social media things with clients as it’s easier for anyone to manage—not just the pros.
And there lies one of the many issues with Figma. It’s become too featured where not anyone can just take your file and figure it out. In Photoshop, the layers were even hard for people. So imagine how someone feels on Figma.
This allowed Canva to take that market share and soon, I think someone will be able to create a simplified design tool for product designers and web designers that focuses on the designer and will take even more market share away from Figma.
So a once easy to use tool is becoming bloated like Photoshop did and losing focus on its main user, the designer, and moving focus to developers which is confusing it’s number 1 user. This on top of some horrific pricing schemes just like Adobe did, the pattern is becoming clear. Competition is needed to refocus them and kick them in gear.
I’m rooting for anyone here, even Figma. They all allow us to make money and we should all be grateful they exist. I just noticed a trend happening with Figma and want to bring it up for anyone out there considering working on a product for designers—because now is the time.
I’d even argue that if someone like Webflow thought more like a designers process, they could take a majority of web design market share away.
Good luck to everyone! Especially Figma because I do not want to switch tools again. But it is about to be exciting times again like the previous battle of the tools.

@BrettFromDJ Real talk, FOR the designers...whats top of your list?
Also, we're working on a lil sum sum

Figma frustrates the hell out of me.
Every feature release has something to do with development & code.
Meanwhile, designers haven’t been given a meaningful update in years.
So much cool shit they could do for us, but instead we get code blocks in Slides.
Cool.
Figma@figma
Presenting code made easier because now you don't have to reformat it Figma Slides, now with code blocks

@eric_nelligan To be honest, the machines feel way over-engineered. Who needs a conveyor belt? Just scan, drop it in, done. That really pisses me off.
English

@veryrobert I used to think like that before the scheme.
Of course there are some positives,
However for most people the negatives significantly outweigh
English

@eric_nelligan The public shouldn’t be footing this bill when corporations could cut plastic instead. That said, I’ve seen people using the machines who might not usually recycle, so it’s clear it has some impact.
