As a Linux user I feel really alienated when using Figma! I love Figma and I love Linux (I’m not willing to give either up) - but you can’t seem to do a lot of things with Figma that others can if you choose to run Linux - no desktop app, no plugin development, and now no local fonts? What else? I understand there are sometimes workarounds for things but not being able to use the same things in the same ways as other users (ie: easily and conveniently) is just rude!
So I want to use google fonts in my designs. I’m not sure if it’s even the right solution but I find a reference to a font helper and instructions to install it. But when I find the place in Account Settings it tells me…
So is this really some dichotomy where I’m forced to choose between continuing to use Linux (a platform I’ve loved and used for nearly a decade - the only platform I really know in depth) and getting the benefit of using all Figma’s features? More specifically, can I use google fonts with Figma while on this platform?
