You heard #Adobe. Deep down you knew this was coming. Now all your art are belong to them. Time to move on to better things... in c/kde@lemmy.kde.social

FreeCAD can cope with low end, sketch-and-pad work. New users seem quite happy. It really needs a usability upgrade to help on-boarding though. More visual interaction feedback would help a lot. A verb-noun UI too. Start a command, which then guides what selections are needed.

For high end and surfacing work it's a non starter.

We need more people with programming, CAD and usability skills. A rare combination, it seems.

Having an option to choose should keep twice as many people happy. The markdown apps I use, don't show any formatting marks, and have style icons. Lots of us outside the IT world are used to this wysiwyg way.

I just install stuff on Kubuntu without knowing for which environment it was created. It's possible that Kubuntu has the necessary Gnome support files to make it all work. I added other app stores too. It all just seems to work without me needing to know how.
