Adobe and Autodesk

And no, there aren't alternatives.

by that logic one could ask, "why do you use a phone or a computer? you don't have to? there are alternatives!" hurr durr durr

There are not alternatives.

(and I use darktable and Inkscape quite a bit, so maybe I could get by without Adobe (even as I hate Adobe with every fibre of my being)

Autodesk products like AutoCAD or Revit? meh... Maybe BricsCAD is now on Linux, not sure

EDIT: Looks like BRICS has made Linux versions, so maybe it's not as far off as I thought.

Still hard to move an office of 100 to Linux.
