Thankful for @figmadesign today. My 1YO spilled water on my laptop this morning immediately bricking it. But it wasn’t the end of the world because I was able to simply log in to Figma on my wife’s computer and keep working. If this happened 5 years ago I would have died.

In Tom Friends (an app targeted to 4+ yo) ads are embedded in every aspect of the gameplay. A roomba with an ad "gift" literally follows the child's character around the room. This is the darkest of UX patterns and it's deeply upsetting.
