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.

Proper CAD software :(
I've been using ARES Commander for a few years now as an AutoCAD alternative on Linux.
An there is also BricsCAD for which the 3d options seem to better developed than with ARES.
Proper CAD or AutoCAD? Those are not the same.
CAD, AutoCAD is just a CAD program
I meant if it was because AutoCAD or any other CAD program.
Ah nevermind, yeah at home/work I use SolidWorks and Fusion 360
Yeah, this. Freecad does not count even though it's slowly getting better. There needs to be industry tools available.
Fusion 360 works pretty well via Lutris
