rebrand from Figma-linux to Select for Figma

Open doromiert opened this issue 1 year ago • 15 comments

due to some copyright issues, figma-linux should move away from using the figma trademark in its name, making it look like it's the official figma app, so here's my proposal to actually do that

I made README.md look prettier.

@ChugunovRoman please take a look at this

WTF is "Select for Figma"? Isn't the name "Figma Linux" already a different name?

Although "Select for Figma" isn't a bad alternative either.

Flathub guidelines disallows that. There is a reason why we choose "Select for Figma" instead of "Figma Linux"

^^^ my girlfriend described the issue perfectly also @ChugunovRoman can you give me your telegram

doromiert avatar Jun 20 '24 19:06 doromiert

basically the tldr is that "figma linux" sounds like an official client

tbh "select for figma" is a worse name and doesnt have much meaning (compared to the current one which is straightforward - what does "select" mean in this context?) but i guess you have no choice when it comes to copyright

more than 5 months and no changes wow

pretty much the maintainer simply doesn't have time to do so.

I know this doesn't solve the problem of getting the app back on Flathub, but as a temporary solution I've made a repo that builds a flatpak with the suggested changes here: https://github.com/flat-software/software.flat.Select

The resulting flatpak is published on the flat.software repository: https://flat.software/repo.flatpakrepo

flatpak remote-add https://flat.software/repo.flatpakrepo
flatpak install software.flat.Select
