Der wahre Unterschied
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Penpot stands out with Open source and self-hostable and SVG-native design. Sketch counters with Vector editing and Symbols and shared styles.
Penpot's Achilles heel: still catching up to figma on polish and plugin ecosystem — feels rough around the edges. Sketch's: mac only — no windows, no linux, no web app. lost massive market share to figma. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Fazit
If you value open source and self-hostable and open-source-fans, die eine selbst-gehostete, go with Penpot. If mac-only-design-teams, die native app-performance matters more, Sketch is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
