Now that they’ve given up on it they are going to open it up to Linux, right?

For those warning you away from Arch, it doesn’t have to be like that anymore.

I installed Garuda as a Linux noob and it has been petty straightforward and problem free. You don’t have to build Arch by yourself in a cave from scraps anymore. Garuda supports Nvidia too.

Just make sure you have pamac installed, it’s the one thing my build didn’t do and it made software installation and updates way easier.

I was a SketchUp make guy back in the day and was able to stick with it a long time but it’s so old it isn’t working right for me anymore (Linux).

Plasticity is about the closest thing I have found. I paid about 175 the other day and plan to use this version for the next 10 years.

Uneasy, yes, but also totally locked into the ecosystem and afraid of trying to educate a userbase -that can barely use technology as it is- enough that they can function with completely new tools.

Fun fact, the M2 licence in California (at least when I took it) uses the same low speed precision turning course that motorcycles do, which is, ironically, even harder to navigate on an automatic transmission moped. I only managed it through a gas and brake, gas and brake, jerky start and stop to keep my speed down enough to make the tight turns.
