> unlimited storage Surely it's not actually unlimited. I wish such claims wouldn't be as common in the industry.
It likely is as it is not general purpose storage. Even though your Linux iso's are called "images", they can not be added to a penpot design file - sorry to say.

HN users want to know if you're allowed to host the whole Internet on it.
This is why we can't have nice things. People see 'unlimited' and will do everything in their power to 'fact-check' it, forcing the producer to place a 'hard cap' and making everyone's life worse.

#44For folks who want a stand-alone desktop release: https://github.com/author-more/penpot-desktop/releases
That's a pity: > Penpot Desktop loads the Penpot web application like a browser does. For offline use, the built-in local instance creator can set up and run a local Penpot instance via Docker (per the official self‑hosting guide).

They seem to update very frequently; I don't know if it still crashes now — I'm planning to try it myself.
What i tested happned 5 months ago. if the issue exist 1 month ago too it is the same problem. The problem lies with the whole thing is XML and SVG unlike Figma's Canvas/WebASM . The whole thing is unable to scale.

#48Why don’t they provide a desktop version, similar to software such as GIMP, Inkscape, and others? Do they believe they cannot achieve the desired revenue through crowdfunding?

Don’t use the unlimited lie then, I assume.
Travel to high trust societies if you don't get what I mean.
Things would be so much easier if we could expect human decency and ethics, even if there is no law against it, because it goes against our values as humans.

#50So, Java instead of wasm, but open source. While LogSeq is an open source copycat (not really) of Obsidian, I simply can’t stand it. I have tried Penpot a couple of years back, so cannot say anything about it, with the exception that I noticed it’s Clojure. Would love to learn more if someone can comment on that. I guess I’m biased against Java, but I’m not experienced with it, so I may be very wrong on that one. Of…
