Whispered Autodesk Fusion 360 Version History SecretsThis way, 50, 100 or 1000 years from now, we'll all have been the better for it. Happy to pay for software, even somewhat expensive software. I'm not paying for apps that expire. Want me to pay again for the same thing. Last I checked, they're still a company that runs on losses. Imagine, people walk in to wherever you work, and just because your place of employment makes millions if not billions, ask for free stuff? And then you give it to them for years, eventually asking money for a few things, all the while, still giving things out for free, and they complain that you shouldn't charge money because you already make money. Maybe it wouldn't have happened if ALL of its users paid some amount of money to use it. Or even better, it wouldn't have happened if a batch of the free tier users didn't abuse the licensing agreements. Most personal users will just move to other free or cheaper software. Not everything is cheap, some hobbies are expensive, others are not. I'm tired of people talking about free software as their right. They see all those free users and think of them as "potential customers." They just don't realize/care that their "potential" is like $20-40 out of maybe 10% of them. And well, it's pretty hard to sell a product the the public for $20 then turn around and sell it to enterprises for $20,000. I got stuck trying to create a bracket, how to activate autodesk revit 2021 very similar to the bracket tutorial. I was unable to properly set the location of two of the holes symmetrically. It was just an exercise to learn the app, if you're really interested in helping I can try to reproduce it and see exactly what the issue was. This issue with Fusion seems like it might be a good opportunity for Solvespace to get more attention. I know I've looked at Solvespace in the past, but it has always seemed stagnant, what with the website saying the last release was in 2016. Since it seems like it is still under development, it might be a good time to do a v2.3.1 release and update the downloads page, along with a note that v3.0 is "coming soon". I want to teach my daughters the principles of CAD, just as they've learned the principles of auto repair, Python, camping, and a host of other things. How am I going to run Solidworks on our Ubuntu home computers? I was looking to Autodesk Fusion 360. Even opened a team for our family recently. I decided on that after looking at FreeCAD, Solvespace, OpenSCAD, LibreCAD, and a few others, each of which had a fundamental dealbreaker. OpenSCAD is constructive solid geometry. You write a script then render it. The most popular platforms also are more in demand for jobs. So, future practitioners learn the most on demand platforms increasing the number of users of that platform.
