Top 4 in Top 7 Best UI/UX Design Communities to Join in 2023.
Design Buddies is another highly active design community that uses the Discord platform. Established in April 2020, it’s relatively new compared to Sitepoint and Graphic Design Forum. That said, the fact it’s new is one of its more notable characteristics.
In a short period, it became one of the most popular online communities for designers. It offers everything you need to level up, from events and design challenges to mentorships and job opportunities.
If you want to expand your skill set, Design Buddies has you covered with its treasure trove of resources. It even allows its members to post their design projects and portfolios for other members to critique.
It also offers paid opportunities and internships for those who need them – a feature that may be beneficial if you are new to the industry and want to gain some experience.
To join its Discord community, click the “Join Us” button at the upper right-hand corner of the homepage. Again, you must provide the required information and await your application’s approval.
Once you get in, you can do everything discussed above, access content or designs created by other talented Discord users, and interact and collaborate with other designers on specific projects.
