Luckily, https://penpot.app/ is open-source and free for everyone!
Dead simple to run via docker compose too. I got it up and running with LDAP in less than an hour

Straight from the old Big Tabacco playbook of traps. Give away free stuff to get you addicted while in school and then when you are out they start profiting on your bad habbit you are hard to get rid off. Better to use software that is free for ever and even better if it is also free as in freedom and opensource.
And when everyone uses or is forced to use the product, they can actively start enshitifying it and squeeze every penny of their users…
IMHO, this has more to do with competition from open source apps like Penpot. If they don’t have a free tier for students, students will get accustomed and to the alternative.
Figma balls
Figma deez nuts.
Seriously who the fuck names a software tool for teenagers “Figma?”
But whats figma?
Joe MAMA!
Lol. It used to be free before adobe acquired it.
Adobe hasn’t acquired it yet, and the pricing basing changed much. Like always, you get a few free projects, but you have to pay to have infinite projects and admin tools. The latter has always cost money. I know, I pay for 70 licenses.
