A bit disappointing to see, but I recently came across a template on the Framer Marketplace that appears to be a very close copy of one of my templates.
I've already reported it to the moderation team and shared both links for review. For now, I'll wait and see what action is taken and how the situation is handled.
What frustrates me most is that, on top of researching, designing, building, and maintaining templates, creators now have to spend time browsing the Marketplace just to check whether their work has been copied and then go through the process of reporting it.
Inspiration is part of every creative industry, and that's completely fine. But there's a line between taking inspiration and republishing someone else's work with minimal changes.
I'm hopeful the moderators will take a fair and thorough look. Will keep you all posted.
