AutoCAD has been industry standard for 40 years now, and it's never going away. Can't run it on Linux. It and Revit are 100% mandatory in construction/ arch / engineering
I have heard of those examples before but I have no use for that so I have not learned specifics to talk about.
Would bet it is harder to combat that "this will never change" mindset in the userbase than actually making alternatives. For 20 years from the 50's it was normal for ALL software to be public domain. Times change, and it's up to us users if they want better.
