My only other options thusfar have been blender (which while powerful, is not in any way as friendly). If I've got a nice font and want to write a word then make it 10mm high, that's 5 seconds in tinkercad. Another feature it had that I found INCREDIBLY useful was extruding SVGs. I am FINE at tools like Sketchup, but when I simply need a 40mm non-threaded cap with a 5mm wall, it's a 30 second process in tinkercad, and I can create it from one machine and easily download on another. Very little warning was given, and I am responsible for sending them no less than 9 paid customers, so I've got both time and reputation invested. I am feeling VERY burned by the whole experience and will find it hard not to VERY loudly complain about whatever they do next. I've made hundreds of things in Tinkercad, and many of the things I've made were one-off small parts that I made in a few minutes there.
