I’m currently getting by with a mixture of Design Spark Mechanical, FreeCAD, and OpenSCAD for prototyping/editing files, I’d love to find a good alternative that isn’t from a predatory company like Autodesk

I like to own my own stuff and run my software locally, so the cloud stuff isn’t really all that appealing to me.
I’d like to try Fusion 360, but I’m primarily on Linux, and they don’t offer a Linux client and for some reason it doesn’t seem to work in Wine.
FreeCAD is okay, but I keep running into the topological naming bug, which is frustrating to work around. CAD Sketcher is nice, but doesn’t have a lot of features found in other CAD packages.
Recently been into OpenSCAD, I have software development experience and some Computer Science background, so it’s been really nice for me to work with. My biggest problem so far has been performance when telling it to “render” more complex models.
