As a developer, the "one big bulletin board" visual model that Figma promotes is one of the worst steps backwards in UX I have ever had to deal with. I am constantly zooming in and out and scrolling around trying to find anything. I hate it so much.

I rarely use Figma but wanted to add that your experience isn't universal. I maintain one giant notes.txt file which I treat as my mental palace, finding sections within it by searching for "# keyword". This allows me to work as a 10x or 100x developer by avoiding bookkeeping chores like categorizing my notes, so more like a search engine. Figma might be targeted at designers who want to work fast also.

But I do agree that Figma needs an auto-organizing feature of some kind for people who receive the work. Perhaps with machine learning to track designs by the timestamp when they were edited, instead of their location on the page. Which could be as simple as a linear or hierarchical view which only scrolls along one axis, with tags similar to git/Sourcetree. Apologies if this already exists!

What do you mean here? That this note taking method makes you 10 to 100 times better at your job?

I do something very similar except different files. But unstructured and rely on search to find things. Optimizes for writing. But this one trick makes you a 100x developer?

I think they mean 100x better than they'd be without it, not 100x better than a "1x developer" (whatever that means anyway).
