Yeah FreeCAD has brutal usability. I use it on occasion but if it's anything overly complex I usually switch to Fusion360

Same. I've been trying to force myself to use it but it's a chore. I've yet to get anything usable out of it.

I have made some stuff for gridfinity, there's a FreeCAD plugin, and a few other small things.

I have two pretty simple things I need to model I'm hoping to at least manage those this weekend.
