@golgaloth It's so sad that while most of these tools have amazing feature sets, their UI is often strange. If you know what you're doing, you can certainly use them just as effectively and efficiently as their Adobe counterparts but coming from the outside, many of them feel entirely foreign, even for someone with experience in equivalent tools. I hope some of them will follow in Blender's footsteps which got a lot more usable (and popular) with the 2.80 UI/UX overhaul.
