So just curious, what does the DINUM do exactly?

In this case it’s the entire government top-down. It’s not just a jurisdiction. They have probably weighed the cost benefits of transitioning vs throwing money at Microsoft forever

What does Gimp do that Krita (or other FOSS projects) can’t?

Timmy Cook is just a bean counter. He’s got nothing to innovate or build. That’s Apple has been buying back shares non stop. Their lead designer jumped ship a while ago. It’s only a matter of time.

Autodesk is also locking me into windows 😕

Im leaning towards two separate machines as well. I think that’s the route I’ll go in the end

I’ve moved half my toolset to free and open source alternatives. I’ve ditched Adobe which has a monopoly on the entire market. Sadly, there are no alternative BIM/CAD tools that can take on Autodesk (yet).

I was thinking this too. Might get a second desktop and set that up

Haha Ok let me send a memo to the whole global architecture community and ask them to switch to something different

Thanks. I am a freelancer but I depend on the platforms my clients work with.

Can anyone give recommendations on what to do if you have to run Autodesk products (Revit. Autocad) for work? No, I can’t swap them for open source alternatives such as FreeCAD as Im working with large international projects. Should I dual boot? Virtual machine inside Linux?

Ok thanks.

I did look at setting this up on my Synology and it seems I have to take a day off work to get it done. Is it worth it?

Barf. Or maybe, just maybe, we have other shit to do rather than spend hours trying to figure out how to do one thing in Gimp. It’s great that YOU’RE passionate about tech. Some of us have other hobbies. Imagine that holy shit
