I can believe it's free, coming from professional cad software it's basically un-usable.
Agreed. Using free CAD feels so substantially worse than literally any other option.
I believe SketchUp is also free for most users, and I'd much rather use it if I don't want to pay. It's not FOSS, but FOSS ≠ good
I also agree. Use audodesk inventor for work and fusion 360 for personal use. I tried freecad and could not do it.
