Might be worth looking at BricsCAD (but honestly as an engineer who has professionally used a number of different CAD packages, FreeCAD honestly isn't that bad and I happily use it at home, it just has a different workflow)

I just tried freeCAD and it’s night and day compared to what it used to be. I can actually design simple parts.

Thanks for having me check my opinion haha.
