Another confusing puzzle. Which slider is disabled? According to Figma, top one ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
In my on going efforts to use #oss wherever possible, this weekend #penpot is getting added to our #selfhosting lab, #figma, I’m on the exit track. The sites abomination was the final prod.

@joelanman Yep. That's one of the reasons why, after reviewing #Figma , we rejected it, and advised everyone to do the same. We want an #accessibleweb . Figma should be an #a11y . They are perfectly positioned to lead the way. And they choose differently.
So #Figma is trying to become Canva and Framer under one roof? I don’t know what to think of that yet.
