3D / mesh / cad software is the bane of my existence, something about it confounds me terribly, and I can never even begin to understand what the interfaces could possibly want from me.

Even something incredibly simple absolutely confuses me, why does literally nothing behave in a way that makes sense? It's all so alien and bizarre, with zero logic or order or reason to any of it that I can detect at all. There are so many buttons, yet, not a single one of them ever does anything I could imagine anyone could ever want to do.

This is the part of 3d printing that rapidly stops being fun.

nostr:npub1ll3r7gr0u3afx6ap65xsrjphq7pafpyjq6jyfhd5peuq5v69lnzq4p7yhh it’s not you. It’s all fucking terrible, but each major platform is so fucking old they’re stuck with workflows and bindings from the mid 90s and their users would riot if they change too much.
