Just curious I am mianly a sketch user and am creating the same design as a test in XD and figma. I notice the text padding is different in XD. So for:

One
Two
Three
Four

The text container in XD is 156px using 44px line height. With less padding on top and bottom. where in Figma and Sketch it is the same 176px. Just curious why such a difference?

Xd applies line height as leading - the distance between each line of text, ignoring the first line. Figma and Sketch apply it the same way it's applied in CSS and browsers, as line-height, which is equal on the top and bottom sides of each line, and is part of the bounding box for the first line as well.

Here's the difference:
