Blender is absolutely brilliant! I have been modeling with 2.93 the last few days and it’s very enjoyable. Once you get the hang of it the interface is predictable, that is to say you start to know where to look.

Affinity beats Gimp for my type of work at the moment, but it’s cheap enough. I hope GIMP takes a page out of blenders book.

Libreoffice is fine as well, no more need for Office365

Godot is another rising star, 3.3 is great and 4.0 is going to be a leap forward. It uses the Blender model and makes money with Patreon and the like. The user community is absolutely fantastic.

Blender and Godot are also my star OSS players. The thing is, I actually don't mind paying for them.

In case you'd like to and currently don't, both accept donations.
