Bricskcad (paid native solution for Linux easy find on torrent) kompas 3d v21 russian development with russian interface works under wine easy to pirate too,freecad,librecad
for 2d your best bet would be qcad (free) and draftsight (paid). some distros have qcad in their repositories.
a little more sophisticated would be freecad with its bim workbench and blender with the bonsaibim addon. both of them let you draw in 3d and print floor plans off of those model.
for a quick mockup you can try sweethome3d.
FreeCAD is the most common solid FOSS modeler. I do not think any solid modeling system is that simple. They tend to need training and continuous use. That was my experience with SolidWorks and NX anyway.
FreeCAD is pretty capable but it's openly 3D focused and doesn't make for a great 2D only solution. However, for some simple work with remodeling, it might be fine.
The draft workbench and sketcher workbench in FreeCAD are both only for 2D projects.
Sketcher is used as the first step for an extrusion iirc but draft is what he wants. It is just more built for 3D models to be turned into drafts rather than making a draft from scratch.
I currently combine Draft, Bim and Sketcher to plan my house. You can also use Tech Draw and Part Design in some areas. I think FreeCAD has a steep learning curve with all the features it has, but it's also incredibly powerful.
Learning and using it don't are barriers.
I could draw the blueprints by hand, on paper, but doing it in a digital format will make it easier to edit, review, etc.
I'll check FreeCAD.
pirate solidworks. fuck dassault systemes, but they make a damned good cad program, with excellent documentation on how to do just about everything under the sun (and some stuff that even the sun don't shine on)
use a win10 ltsc VM with device passthru for running it, it won't know the difference.
Linux
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.
