Blender is an even better counterexample, because it had a truly terrible GUI that everyone complained about, worked hard at it, launched a new version with a much better GUI that made things much closer to how commercial apps do it, and this helped it tremendously. Now, it is beloved and used fairly widely throughout industry.
(Note: I'm not a 3d professional, though I am somewhat connected to it. I am mostly observing the community from the outside, so if I'm wrong about this I'll welcome the correction.)
- robenkleene 2y agoYeah accurate, I'd just note Blender is still by no means a conventional app regarding its GUI today. E.g., there are a lot of two sequential letter key bindings, and a lot of other modes. (The other 3D packages I've used also have their own UI quirks, but there's still a difference worth noting.)
