Oh, AutoDesk…you have such a way with words. Honestly, I would rather learn to design in OpenSCAD than send AutoDesk a single penny.

Just so nobody fires up freecad thinking they’re about to get a commercial experience:
FreeCAD sucks. It works. But it sucks. There’s basically no community. Development is fractured and slow. Some workflows that are trivial in solid works are tedious in freecad.
But it works. And it’s foss. If you need something that runs on Linux, it’s the way to go.
Disagree. I thought freecad was awesome. But I didn’t use it professionally…just as a hobbyist teaching myself cad.
The most frustrating thing for me was the changes between versions and finding the right tutorial to match your version was frustrating.
It’s the equivalent of gimp vs Photoshop.
This is my experience too. It’s like people repeating 20 years of Gimp vs Photoshop.
