For me its honestly a ton of my work software (digital forensics), shit is too niche to be replaced by good FOSS options. Cellebrite, Magnet Axiom, etc. Autopsy is great and free and has a linux version but it simply cannot get the same level of data without a pretty nutty level of custom code.

And the biggest side effect of this is FUCKING WINDOWS. God I would replace this nightmare OS in a heartbeat if the aforementioned work software would make linux compatible versions. We have legitimately wasted 10k hours dealing with windows bullshit that would not be a problem in linux. Though im sure linux would take a different 10k for its own problems.

What about you guys? Doesn’t have to be work related, thats just the thorn in my side right now.

      Ironically, an in-Sketcher offset tool has been developed over a year ago, along with like 10 other Sketcher tools… but it’s been blocked from merging because they found there is a mistake in the general UI styling, and they switched to fixing that instead.

      Oh well, guess FreeCAD’s UI is a problem after all. 🤦
