I usually use FreeCAD but lately the constraints solver just feels kinda buggy, crapping out on even fairly simple geometries.

FreeCAD is honestly quite well suited to the 3D modeling I do. Geometrically constructed shapes. Rather utilitarian designs. But it just doesn't work very well.

What else is there?

Do I need to learn OpenSCAD?
