![]() ![]() I do wish they had a one time purchase option. While I'm sympathetic, I'm not sure what impact any "mass migration" of free users is expected to have, particularly considering Autodesk having to deal with the same conditions. Autodesk has to weigh the drag of the free against their need to generate a profit (especially these days) without (so far as I know) anything but development sales. Support and development are not free, even if Prusa manages to cover those costs with printer and filament sales. I'm not exactly happy about this, but seeing some of the bitching and moaning about free software like PrusaSlicer and Cura certainly helps me understand Autodesk's position. Much like alternatives like Affinity Designer ($50 one time) have been developed to compete with Adobe Photoshop (pay forever) for the hobbyist, I hope someone does the same for 3D design and can do so profitably. I'll keep my eyes open for something better (ideally with a one-time purchase price). though that sounds a bit beyond hobbyist to me. One complaint is that some users have multiple assemblies that must be separate active documents. You can still have unlimited archived documents, but I recall it can take a while to "unfreeze" archives. The big change for a hobbyist like me is the limitation of 10 active documents. ![]() I can understand some of the advanced features (simulation) shifting to pay as they gain capabilities.
