Thought the same. On a side note, the Sketch website is a hot mess. Love the Sketch product, but this... this is something.


Wow. You really are not kidding. What a mess. I actually feel stressed looking at their home page. It's overwhelming. THEN they've decided to top the chaos off with animated Figma-cursors that have no apparent relationship to the hero content.

It doesn't get any better as you scroll either. Everything is animated and changes while you're trying to read it.

I tried to give them feedback through there "Contact Us" form and it's broken.

Sketch. If you read this thread, please take this feedback seriously. It's shocking how unusable your marketing website is.


I hear ya ;)


I thought it couldn't get worse until I tried to select text on the front cover and realized the whole thing is draggable. The designs on the side are draggable as well, but they're also images and it conflicts with normal image dragging on Firefox


On a side side note... are there good reasons to use Sketch over Figma these days? All the designers I know have moved over. Should they not have?


I’m reading on a tablet. Counter opinion, I like their website. I’m neither a designer nor a user of sketch.


Oh wow, they've really... updated it. There are some neat features but man it's confusing.
