Open report · · 5 min read

An open report on the free design community Spaceberry Community: over 51,000 messages, thousands of questions and answers, 9 design games and the main topics of discussion.

Spaceberry Community is a free Telegram community for designers and people entering the profession. It has been running since July 2024, and since 2025 it has been developed by Spaceberry Foundation. In this report we openly show how the community lived over two years: how many people wrote, what they asked about and how activity changed. All numbers are calculated from the group's public messages; the methodology is at the end of the page.

What the community talks about

To understand what members come with, we counted messages by keywords. Learning is mentioned most often, followed by portfolios and case studies, then Figma as the main working tool, AI tools, jobs and vacancies, and UX research.

Messages by topic, July 2024 – November 2026
Learning and courses938
Portfolio and case studies705
Figma647
AI tools380
Jobs and vacancies314
UX research131

Keyword search in Ukrainian and English; one message can touch several topics.

We build programs and materials around these topics: we answer portfolio questions with feedback on work and a guide to case studies, we turned interest in AI into an AI challenge and a workshop on Figmosha, and beginners' questions into a guide to starting in UX/UI.

Design games

Since September 2024 the community has held 9 design games: a live battle on Zoom, Dribbble shots, a series of redesigns of Ukrainian apps, a team game, an AI challenge and a redesign of the NAOMA website. The community itself chooses the winners by vote, and we check authorship through Figma files. All games with dates and links to the original posts are on the Activities page, and how we run them is in the guide Design games as practice.

What's next. In December 2026 we are planning a winter design game, with the topic chosen by participants' vote. You can join the community for free via this link.

Methodology

  • Data was collected on November 4, 2026 from the public embeddable message pages of the group t.me/spaceberry_community. Only messages with text are counted; photos, stickers and polls without a caption are not.
  • "Messages with a question" are messages containing a question mark.
  • Topics were identified by keyword search (for example, "portfolio", "case", "figma", "ai", "vacancy"), so the figures are approximate.
  • The member count comes from the group's public Telegram page. We publish only aggregate numbers and do not disclose who wrote what.
