Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Figma sent a cease-and-desist to AI startup Lovable over its use of "Dev Mode" for a new feature. Figma trademarked the term last year, but it's widely used in software, including by Apple, Google, and Microsoft. Lovable CEO Anton Osika says they won't change the name, fueling debate over the trademark's validity.
