it's so weird to think "I hope this app I love doesn't get abandoned and sunset" and to have the app be Freeform and the worry be about Apple instead of a small startup
the one take giving me hope this won't be the case is @rjj’s that apple made freeform for their own remote collaboration needs
@gn @rjj the more I use Freeform the more I love it?
@gn I just hope they update more often than once per year. It’ll be hard to keep using it if tools like FigJam run much faster.
@shawn yeah... that I don't have much hope for unfortunately
@gn is the macOS version out yet? I went to look for it but could only find iOS and iPadOS
@DavidDarnes @gn I think it’s included with .3!
@keir @gn brb! ⚙️
@keir @gn oorrrrrrr not
@DavidDarnes ahh maybe .3 isn’t out yet? (I’ve been on the beta for a while)
@DavidDarnes ah yup after a quick google, it looks like it’s not out just yet!
@keir dang, well I can wait. Thanks for the info!
@DavidDarnes @keir Freeform is out, I have it on my Mac so maybe it’s .2?
@robb oh! Quite possibly! 👀
@keir @robb you were right, I’m in 😎
@DavidDarnes @keir I have been known to be right from time to time.
@DavidDarnes a good question for @ryanashcraft
@gn @ryanashcraft I’m in! 13.2 macOS release has Freeform 👍🏻

@DavidDarnes @ryanashcraft omg lol I thought you were referring to FoodNoms macOS 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

glad you got freeform tho!

@gn Freeform kinda stinks from my experience.
@mickregan why do you say that?

@gn I feel like it’s really limiting and lacks a lot of functionality (not being able to use a pen tool on Mac is so stupid). There’s just nothing compelling about it for me.

I tried using it to brainstorm something for school and I had a hard time trying to evenly space things out and make all the arrows on my brainstorm the same size.

I’d rather open Keynote and draw some shapes… it’d probably turn out better. It’s just not a very good app.

(sorry for the lengthy reply)

@mickregan agreed about the lack of drawing tools on mac. i use it to sketch and annotate with photos and screenshots on my ipad and find it pretty perfect for that.
@gn iPad version seems cool then! Hopefully the Mac version gets some love in the future.
