Comment on PSA: Try FreeCAD Link Branch (it's a big improvement!)
Maalus@lemmy.world 6 months agoThey sound like a realist. If every branch has a better version than main, then what are you doing with the master branch in the first place? There are a lot of glaring issues with the software. It spent so much time in development already, it should’ve been a second Solidworks by now. Instead you get a mess that breaks all the time.

Well you also don’t understand community projects apparently. It’s software made my afaik unpaid volunteers. You can’t expect anything from it. Everything you get is a fucking present you should be grateful for. If you don’t like it, go and pay for a commercial solution or better even help out the project by reporting bugs, usability issues, writing docs or code.

Boo hoo buddy. We are entitled to our opinion. I don’t care if it is made by volunteers, or if it is “the best open source solution out there”. It sucks for doing anything, and there are free options out there which are better.

You are entitled to your opinion but I think it’s stupid and unhelpful. You are clearly wrong about it sucking for doing anything.

I’ve used it for an extended amount of time because of the requirements of the project. It sucks. If you read this thread you will see other people saying it sucks. You will see people recommending forks of it to get basic cad functionality like the ability to edit the past. Stop fanboying, move on.
