What actually works in designers subreddits
Design subreddits care about craft. The tools that get adopted are the ones whose creators show their own work using the tool, in detail. Templates, plugins, and resources that solve specific design problems get organic recommendations from users. Generic 'design tool launched today' posts get downvoted.
