Except teams benefits from Figma far more than on sketch. Design systems, plugins, multiplayer for holding critique/retros/planning, version control, etc put Figma far ahead of Sketch.

I manage a design team and there’s no way in hell we would go back to Sketch.

To even think that having a “native” app has any bearing isn’t accurate at all. Sketch is so slow compared to Figma. You aren’t using multiplayer everyday but when you do need it, there’s nothing like it.

Adobe XD does all these things and has Miro integration for seamless collaboration and works in windows and Mac. Any reason why I would use Figma instead?

I think Adobe's business strategy is a compelling reason.

Knowing that they had a monopoly on creative software, they raised the prices to the point of completely locking out a significant portion of their userbase.

If they could, they would do the same to XD.

Seeing you write this, a doubt creeps that you ever used Sketch.
