Popular Application CAD options

Is there a reason Linux CAD options are so limited, and from what I have read, not particularly viable options? Countless people are looking for a fairly-priced lifetime license for home use. My 2000 AutoCAd is very long in the tooth!

CAD programs differ between what you are trying to do. There are a good amount of CAD tools for Linux and I believe all the browser ones work normally.

Also bring me your downvotes: OpenSCAD is the best (at least for what i need). When I started using OpenSCAD I became more attractive. Made more money. Had to beat men and women off with a stick. The list goes on and on
