    My experience with open source software is that it doesn’t work anywhere near as well as the proprietary options when I need it and then 10 years later the community has rewritten it to become far superior and I always mean to go back and try it but no longer need it.

    Blender I’m looking at you.

      Ok but seriously, Blender has being going like crazy ever since the 2.7 release. It is insane to me what this software can do today, while being FOSS

        Yup. It went from “this is a horribly thought out way to move in a 3D scene and I can’t rebind the key bindings” to something pretty industry relevant in a short period of time.
