A diferença real
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Lunacy stands out with Sketch file compatibility and Built-in design assets. Penpot counters with Open source and self-hostable and SVG-native design.
Lunacy's Achilles heel: smaller community means fewer plugins and tutorials — you’re often on your own for troubleshooting. Penpot's: still catching up to figma on polish and plugin ecosystem — feels rough around the edges. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
