    Affinity can be installed on Linux via WINE just fine. There’s even a repo for it. Fusion360, of all things, also works the same way. WINE is not just for gaming

      Can you link what you are talking about for Fusion360 by chance? I’ve tried repeatedly and it always seems to be broken at the part where it wants to open a web browser so you can log in… I ended up running Fusion in WinBoat, but it just isn’t as performant so I would love a Wine solution instead.

          Hey, I heard they addressed the topological naming problem in the 1.0 release. I’m gonna follow Digikey’s FreeCAD tutorial and see if it’s as good as they say.

        Ahh, you have the new install. Yes that is a known issue. I was installing it before they did the switcheroo with their custom distribution QT6 webview (the root cause of the issue). If you have the old install it still works just fine
