From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Depends what you want to create. Organic models, mechanical parts, huge assemblies, symmulations, how complex etc.
If you need 3D modeling - blender, but you need 3D CAD modeling software I guess. Im not daily fusion user, but I was playing around with it. Im using solidworks and there is nothing available on linux that is good enough for my needs unfortunately. Thats why I dual boot shitdows... Someone said fusion can work under proton, that sounds good, Id try that. If that doesnt work for you I think freeCAD is your best bet.
And yeah Cura works on linux 🥰
