    Mint, because it seems like the easiest OS for someone who doesn’t know wtf a flatpak is

    The other hard drive has Windows, because Fusion360 doesn’t work on Linux. Hey Autodesk, can you hear me? Make it happen please

      Try solvespace or openscad or blender depending on your use-case.

        I really want to learn these, but every open-source alternative to fusion has a completely vertical learning curve. If I can’t intuit how to make a 20 mm cube without looking up a tutorial, then rebooting into my Windows install to use F360 will simply be faster

          From the list, openscad requires the least tutorial. Solvespace is really easy also, but you need to watch some exciting modelling videos before you get the idea around it. Blender is hard.

          OpenScad also gives you a different modelling experience that lets you write reusable models, e.g. if you are a carpenter, 90% of your modelling is sizing and positioning fiberboards to shape a box. You can “automate” such tasks, easily. I wrote a script for myself that does that, and I’m now super fast at modelling furnitures. After some modelling you will be also capable of making such lib. (As a developer, I might be biased)
