As a designer using SVGs across the web, there are a few drawbacks that are easy to fix:
- platforms like Twitter and Google Slides not accepting SVGs. I assume this is due to security concerns.
- Using SVGs on a website doesn't render with included WebFonts like normal text would. This leads to outlining text, which is a huge maintainability burden.
- Graphics programs have tones of SVG bugs. Even "leading" software like Illustrator and Sketch have a lot of bumps in the road.
Overall really excited about SVGs and use them as much as possible.
