what’s it like to work with me, in a nutshell

Our next major update is here — and it’s got glass in it.

Yep, that glass. Non-solid, lowercase-G glass. It works right out of the box (as all glass should?) but you can also tweak every parameter. It’s a lot of fun.

And that’s not all! ↓

who at WhatsApp thought it was a good idea to start a voice chat by scrolling down when at the bottom of the chat

what a silly interaction, but I'm sure the metrics on new voice chats will be great

when sharing a photo/link via text on the iPhone, I need a "send and continue texting" feature to switch to messages/whatsapp/etc after sharing to keep texting

In today’s @sketch.com update, we’ve added Frame as a container type, which is a long overdue no-brainer — but we’ve also added a Graphic container.

Graphics aren’t the standout in this update, but to me they’re the most interesting story to tell. So, here’s why graphics exist 🧵

Remember when we said auto layout was coming to Sketch? It’s here. It’s called Stacks, and it’s part of our biggest release ever — out now.

There’s a lot to cover, so buckle up and we’ll take you on a tour.

Also, stick around for a surprise at the end of the thread. 👀

Let’s go ↓

Very excited to watch valley bros explain how stealing models is bad but stealing books to train models is absolutely fine.

I think the EU should too force Twitter to sell to an EU owner or else be banned in the union

after all, it’s owned by an official of a foreign extremist government, who’s meddling in EU elections

it says a lot about an industry if a free and open source alternative to every product on the market can destroy 1 trillion dollars of “value” in one day lol

the portuguese government, who rolled back a great new visual identity commissioned by the previous government for not being patriotic enough, announced a open contest for a new passport design… with a prize of €5000

absolutely fucking embarrassing

What did we do in 2024? We asked @rafa.design (and a few friends) to show what we shipped… and… well… enjoy!

We’re working a stack layout feature for @sketch.com, and while we still have lots to do, here’s a sneak peek from yours truly: youtu.be/wK_OXZxakPQ

Particularly pleased with how we’ve repurposed the existing alignment actions to override cross-axis alignment on items.

Spending a month on Bluesky has created a whole new model of a fight we need to be having right now. Not liberal vs. conservative or whatever, but respect vs manipulation.

I am tired of being manipulated everywhere I go. That’s why I like it here, I feel like I’m in charge for once.

where “regulate out of existence” actually means requiring

“a dedicated page on their website where it says how many users they have in the EU and where they are legally established”

this is just anti-regulation fear mongering, i’m sure the free market “EU bad” tech bros will slurp it right up
you know you are succeeding as a social network when

A) Meta is copying you quickly
B) the EU is trying to regulate you out of existence www.theverge.com/2024/11/25/2...
Bluesky is breaking the rules in the EU
But the EU can’t regulate it like X or Threads yet.
