Has anyone else noticed and grown tired of Figma’s increasing bugs and instability? Over the past six months or more, the product quality seems to have steadily declined. Performance lags are much more common, bugs seem to pop up everywhere, and the UI3 update felt like a major disappointment.

I can’t help but feel that the decline started when Figma announced its transition from Skew (their custom programming language) to TypeScript. Why might this shift have impacted performance so negatively? Could it be related to how the new codebase integrates with their existing infrastructure, or is it just growing pains from the transition?

Would love to hear if others have similar experiences and thoughts on what might be going on.

I take lots of photos but have a very hard time organizing them. Are there any good desktop apps that solve this problem with AI? Ideally, I would like my photos to be tagged, sorted and the ability to search individuals.

I use Google and Apple Photos but I don't want to upload every single image on the cloud, so I'm looking for an alternative that works on device ideally.

As a freelancer, I've worked on 100+ projects, including some for billion dollar US companies through an agency. Those clients were very impressed with my work.

I'm now looking to build my own client base in the US market. I have the skills and expertise, as evidenced by my track record.

What strategies have worked for you to land new clients in a different market, leveraging past successful projects? I'm interested in tips for marketing, lead generation, networking, or any other approaches that could help freelancers make this transition effectively.
