for me, i'm not sure how i feel about a ceo of a company blocking users of their product bc of political/social difs it's not like they're attacking him, he's blocking pro-palestine designers who haven't even interacted with him it seems ๐Ÿค”

It's pretty deeply unethical to take away access to someone's tools if their politics don't align with yours. I call bullshit on the "intellectual honesty" camp here. What if they chose not to serve Black people, would that still fall under "intellectual honesty?" Like I said, bullshit and unethical

Dude is weird for that. He can do what he wants on his acct; I just take note and move accordingly; Boycotting the usage of Figma seems a bit performative; We can spend more time organizing and helping send aid to the Palestinian people if we want to make a difference.

Regardless of the actual contention I have to remain intellectually honest and say itโ€™s his platform I donโ€™t take his specific standpoint into consideration Figma isnโ€™t owned by its users If it were a protocol and there was ownership by users itโ€™s a different story

the blocking is weird, but I am in the "your account your rules" camp he's free to retweet / block whoever and people are free to diss - don't know what else I'm supposed to do or say about it ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Iโ€™m wondering if he used a bulk blocking tool, saw people that got blocked & never interacted with him. Maybe there was a tweet that set him off and blocked all favs. But instead of the push back to Sketch maybe everyone should try https://penpot.app/
