From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Using Fusion360 in a Virtualbox, works okish for the few things I'm doing. There are several projects on GitHub for running it with Wine, but wasn't able to get them working on my machine. Maybe not industry Standard, but I'm also using OpenSCAD from time to time for smaller things (especially when I want to publish them).
Im pretty sure Inventor is the other main industry cad software, and considering they are both Autodesk it may also work ok.
I've used OpenScad a little, definitely agree it's only good for small things.
