I would add FreeCAD to 3d editing software.

Dafuq is freecad? It sounds waaaaaay too good to be true. Maybe above hot singles in your area want to fuck lol. I had a software I was using that let you use it free x amount of times but all you had to do was clear your cache/data each time it was triggered to expire and you had a fresh set of uses. Can't remember the name I'll jave to look it up.

[-] M4t1cc@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

It's not as intuitive as other comparable software, and has a fairly steep learning curve especially for beginners, but it is free. No subscription models that's plaguing the 3d modeling software field.

Check it out! https://www.freecad.org/ https://wiki.freecad.org/

your paint-dot-net link is... shouldn't be a link lol

[-] AnActOfCreation@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago

Lol it's not a link in the markdown so it's just the Lemmy web UI making assumptions. Also it's funny that they don't own that domain.

Thanks for sharing this list of software tools! It's great to see a variety of options, including both FOSS and proprietary software.

Photo Editing: GIMP and Krita are excellent open-source tools, while Paint.NET offers a user-friendly interface. Video Editing: DaVinci Resolve is professional-grade, CapCut is perfect for social media, and Shotcut balances simplicity with features. Audio Editing: Audacity is versatile and open-source, while Cakewalk and GarageBand are great for music production. 3D Graphics: Blender is leading in open-source 3D modeling, with Spline and Rumba offering unique features. Office Software: LibreOffice is a robust open-source suite; Microsoft 365 Free Apps and WPS Office are excellent free alternatives. Antivirus: Windows Security provides reliable protection, with Avast and Malwarebytes adding extra layers of security. Productivity: Bitwarden for password management, VSCodium for coding, PDF-XChange for PDFs, 7-Zip for compression, OBS Studio for streaming, and LanguageTool for writing. This mix offers powerful solutions for various needs and preferences.

Audio editing is still shit. GarageBsnd is on Mac, Audacity has a stupid interface, Cakewalk is the first time I hear that name. On Linux, video editing tools are probably the only way to edit audio, and it's obviously lacking.

edit: Now I have stuff to try, thank you guys.

Needs more CAD

[-] variants@possumpat.io 1 points 5 months ago

What would one use for something like editing photos into gifs. I would edit a lot of still images in photoshop using the puppet warp and the animation but haven't really found anything to do that

[-] EarthShipTechIntern@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

Krita & gimp both can handle that

[-] 11111one11111@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I love Gimp. I was even using it as a sort of workaround free pdf editor for image/graphics h3avy pdf edits.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Oh that's perfect thank you!
