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

I recently made the switch to Linux, and since fusion360 doesn't support Linux I've been using Onshape. Boy do I miss fusion. I certainly wouldn't pay $600 a year for it though since I only use it for personal projects.

Getting fusion360 running on linux is 10 seconds of google. It works perfectly fine and i use it for without any hiccups.

Method 1: Get Bottles and use the provided installer inside that.

Method 2: Use this script

This isn't the personal use version. That one is still free.

What do you find that you miss the most? I've considered trying onshape but I don't really like cloud based software (yes, I know F360 is semi cloud based).
