I have never ever needed the Slice tool, and neither have you!
It’s so quick and easy to share the link to a selection, take a screenshot, or ⇧A a pretty frame around your work and export it. So I really don’t see the point of keeping Slice inside Figma. How hasn’t it been axed yet? Are there that many Slice users out there?
Given that S is such a prominent key, it’s very easy to hit by accident, (happens to me multiple times a day) and Slices are just weird to delete.
Let’s declutter! Less is more, less is more, less is more. It takes great courage to say goodbye, but I think it’s time!
