Surface, not just social media, but support, sales conversations, conversations of our community.

We gather people together and then just talking with folks, research both qualitative and quantitative.

These are extremely useful signals for our team.

And uh, I think of intuition as like a hypothesis generator, then you have to test the hypotheses.

Using feedback to be part of that test is important.

But also, I'd always rather give feedback to the Figma team by surfacing the voice of a user rather than being like, I have this point of view.

Yeah, I'd do the latter as well.

But the the former is my preferred method.

And so I'd much rather champion user feedback or a user bug report or a feature request and then dive.

with that person, then you know, just have it come from me.

And the other thing is I'm always looking for those visionary users who are a step ahead of everybody else.

They know just kind of intuitively what is needed.

And I think that uh when you can find them and separate them out, that signal that is just uh amazing to get.

I remember early days of Figma, there was this one user test that I literally brought a bottle of wine to because

Figma's so slow yet at that point.

I mean, like to complete the user test, I knew it would take hours.

The person that we were doing the user tests with this guy named Payam, who's an amazing designer, then was working at Coursera.
