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…
Kreative Suite
* Krita is your new design/painting app
* Kdenlive will give you video-editing powers
* glaxnimate adds 2D vector animations to you videos
* digiKam organises your collection images

Also:
* Inkscape - create sophisticated vector-graphic designs
* Scribus - layout like a pro
* GIMP - need we say more
* Blender - ditto
I agree! Nevertheless I am still astounded at the progress FreeCAD has made in the last… What? Four ~ five years? It has gone from “barely usable” and “lacking in even basic features” to “woah! You can make that with FreeCAD?”. Also, the community and third party support and contributions have also exploded. This is vital for the survival of a project like this.
@Bro666 @DeltaWye Good to know, good to know. ☺️
Be advised that FreeCAD, much like Blender, is in no way easy to use! It is software for doing engineering and architecture stuff. These thing are not simple. FreeCAD’s learning curve is steep.
The good news is that there are more and more tutorials online (and many are follow-along videos) that can help get you started.
@Bro666 I did some AutoCad at university. Brilliant software if you know how to make stuff happen. Would you say that FreeCad is more difficult? I’m fully aware that this is engineering software. I would hope to be able to afford a 3D Printer one day.
@Bro666 @DeltaWye Same with Kdenlive. 4-5 years ago, it lacked to many features and was a bit too buggy for me. These days, it’s hugely updated, pretty darn stable and frankly… awesome.
