    • I used to use 3ds Max as a student. Switched to blender when in college, when I realised that there is no way I can afford to pay them if I’m doing 3D modelling just as a hobby.
    • For AutoCAD, thankfully I never needed it after Uni. For normal vector art Inkscape suffice for now. But I really miss the ye olde Oracle style type command to draw functionality. Honestly, I thought Autodesk made good software and if they were still providing perpetual licenses, I would definitely ask any company I entered to buy it (and not pirate) if they needed me to use it. But now, if I really need something for engineering drawing, I’ll probably make my own FOSS.
    • Photoshop? Tried out the UI, was too hard, went to Paint.NET. Now I’m on GIMP. Definitely better and no need to pirate.
