    Why use Canva? What are you doing on this that can’t be done for free in other applications elsewhere?

      Dunno about op, but at my work it’s used because of its ease to share and have several people work on the same file

      Not a helpful take TBH.

      Canva is crazy easy and convenient. That’s what they built their business on being.

      People can complain about the products they like getting worse, that’s how change happens, that’s how people get motivated to make alternatives…etc

    “Yeah, makes sense. You know how hard it is to draw a perfect circle? How about you try it then, asshole? Didn’t think so. Now pay up!!”

        It’s nit picking but compatibility is sometimes not guaranteed with certain asset packs/features that seem to be shipped by default across certain versions. It kind of comes with the whole “hey, when you view the thing please view it using this url” aspect which is fine generally but there are always those outlier situations. Like I said though. Total nit picking.

      Looks like you’re out of flags. Would you like to purchase 10 more for $2.99?

      EDIT: My brain read Minesweeper. 😂 Oh well, I’m leaving it.

        Do you use your flags? I… don’t. At least on mobile. It’s too big of a hit on time

        It looks like you’re trying to mark a mine that would create a circle. This is available in our premium tier for only $13.99 a month.

    Visio is similar in that the lowest plan doesn’t let you use many of the built in shapes.

    You can add them yourself as images but loads of useful shapes for a network diagram, for example, are missing making it very inconvenient to use (I’m now using draw.io).

    I can understand limiting certain functionality (like only having a web UI) but not making basic tasks unnecessarily difficult.

    I mean, it’s free. For the longest time they were great. Though, It even looks like if you scroll to the right, you can make a circle just fine

      You can no longer choose the shapes, AI hallucinates them for you. If they don’t fit your desired shape you can pay-per-side-polygon to have a fixed number of sided shape added. mS pAInt
