This times 100. The open source alternatives are ridiculously good. Figma and Blender are the ones I use and we've made some extensions for specific jobs painlessly.

The free stack is even catching up where paid software used to excel - modern, usable UI. We're happy to drop a few hundred on donations.

Figma is not open... not open source, or even file format.
