Canva and Figma are 90% of the reason

How long before Adobe buys them... they did it macromedia and all their other competitors. Anti-trust laws, if they were working, would have shut down Abobe decades ago.

They tried to buy Figma and failed due to anti monopoly legislation

Holy shit I can't believe that kind of consumer protection still exists in the US

IIRC it was the British regulator that blocked it. The EU and eventually US ones issued similar statements following the UK block and then the deal was abandoned

They tried to buy Figma, but getting past the regulators was too hard. It was clearly a play to monopolize UX design just like the did with graphic design.
