Some, I've used blender and fusion 360 for my resin prints. Blender isn't great for cad work obviously but has worked for some things and definitely for the more artistic stuff.
I really love Fusion 360 but want to get rid of their dumb payment system but have yet to find a free alternative that is as easy to use. I use fusion maaaaybe 2 times every 3 months and like unlike blender it doesn't feel like I have to keep using it constantly to remember all the shortcuts and menus etc. It just kind of works for the vast majority of stuff I do. I used to use Sketchup back when it was a real program and wasn't online only.
