I was hoping to trial Fusion 360 for doing modeling and air resistance analysis on a MacBook Pro since it is the only laptop I have and unfortunately Autodesk don't seem to support Linux desktops.
I checked that F360 worked on Mac. The CFD product page also said it could run solves in the cloud with cloud credits. All sounds good.
So I install Fusion 360 on MacOS and start a trial. Only after modeling my part and looking for how to run a CFD analysis on it do I find in the fine print the CFD function is only supported on Windows.
The 3d modeling is supported on Mac, and the solve has no client dependency because it runs in the cloud, so why on Earth does the CFD user interface need Windows?
No way for me to use CFD, which was the only reason for trying Fusion in the first place.
This may be where other CAD products like OnShape have the advantage, as they are cloud native.
