So I recently switched to All Linux, All The Time. No real complaints. But back in my windows days, I more or less realized that Fusion 360 really is That Damned Good. Basically every aspect and feature is intuitive in ways that just seem wrong for a CAD tool
It looks like I can use wine and some funky scripts to run a significantly older build and… I might do that. Or I’ll go back to tinkercad. And, obviously, FreeCAD is what I should use and FreeCAD might have the worst UX on the planet.
Are there any good middle ground tools? Not quite as good as FreeCAD but works on linux/wine? Or am I gonna get my TinkerCAD on?
Thanks
OpenSCAD does the job for me, though I’m not particularly experienced in CAD things. I’ve tried FreeCAD and Fusion 360 (on Mac) previously and they just look too confusing for my taste.
With OpenSCAD I can at least approach the modelling in the same way I approach things at my say job: by just writing some code 👩💻

Thanks, I’ll take a look <3
