     here’s a slightly different question: why hasn’t the open source world cloned the fuck out of sketchup’s UI yet? is there something hard about it? is it patent encumbered?

     like, maybe people think of software as some kind of natural feature of the world, just the unchangable will of god, and so asking why the humans responsible for this software decided to make it suck more just sounds like a zen koan?

     did I word this in a way that implied it was rhetorical or that i was looking for cad software and asking for reccomendations? i feel like I am going mad here.
