You made inspection a lot more harder after dev mode.. Figma is getting more complex to manage every day!

Making new features ❌
Putting already existing features behind a paywall ✅

Why not having the "Properties" tab in Figma when we have edit access? It was so nice using them both. I often would use the "Properties" tab to quickly read the applied styles.

The simple fact that you call “Full design seat” an acces to inspect mode is already BAD! You purposely introduce confusion to generate dark patterns.
You never answer to the question : Why do I have to pay for a partner who has already a pro plan or entreprise plan in another Team ?”
Duplicating is a very awful method regarding the property rights

That's weird. I'm on a Organization plan but I don't have any of the inspect tabs showed here for View only access or Edit access. My tabs says Inspect and Plugin.

XD is much better. I just have to use Figma because all the new tutorials use it.

I like the old version, now it need to PAID for inspect

Terrible product practices Figma, and it's mind blowing that you do this while your user base is literally UX Designers.
