I am using Figma from almost 2 years. It’s a great tool. Previously I was using Windows 10 yet recently switched to Linux(Ubuntu). Figma doesn’t have any official release for Linux. There are some Unofficial desktop versions but they are “BUGGY”. I request you guys to release an official Figma desktop app for Linux.
Was really surprised that this has been an issue for 3 years and no updates from Figma. It’s an Electron app, what obstacles are you facing to achieve this? After 3 years I think an explanation is deserved.
Linux has become more accessible, user-friendly, and enjoyable to use. Companies like System76 are even building computers specifically designed for and shipped with Linux onboard. As a UI designer and WordPress developer (ex MacOS user) using Pop!_OS (an Ubuntu-based distro), I believe it’s time for Figma to join the revolution. MacOS is no longer the only designer-friendly system. Let’s make it happen!
It's incredible that there's still no native Linux version of Figma after more than three years of requests!
Come on, guys! Make it happen!
You add a dev mode, devs mostly use linux, you have no linux app and don't prioritize it... ad the linux app or remove the dev mode.
Dear Figma: Where the hell is the Linux app?
Every year we get flashy CONFIG announcements. Every year — shiny features nobody asked for. AI suggestions that don’t understand basic UI, endless updates to stuff we didn’t even know was broken. But still, after all this time — no native Linux app.
Meanwhile, thousands of designers, devs, open-source contributors, and product teams use Linux as their main OS. We’re out here running Figma through a browser like it’s 2009, juggling memory leaks and GPU glitches, while begging you for something real.
We’re not asking for a time machine or a mind-reading AI.
We’re asking for a basic, native Linux app — just like Windows and macOS users have had for years.
You say Figma is for teams, for the future, for creators.
Well, creators use Linux. Builders use Linux.
And we’re tired of being left out.
You keep dropping features we don’t need, but the one thing people actually ask for? Still ignored.
If Figma wants to stay the standard for digital design — you need to stop treating Linux like a second-class citizen.
The community’s been patient. But the patience is running out.
Build the damn Linux app.
