FreeCAD is my current go-to CAD program. I’m really glad I finally took the time to learn it.
But start reading some docs and watch a turorial on how to use sketches and it makes a lot of sense.
Very happy to "own" my own CAD package as well. Got really tired of the SaaS nature of Fusion.
I've done the standard: Google "freecad tutorial", click open a bunch of likely-looking result tabs, and have a quick browse to locate quality. From youtube, to written and illustrated guides, etc.
It's not difficult to find useful instruction. But the overall pool of easily-searchable knowledge suffers from that standard internet Time Fragmentation effect : that is, within months and years of publication, most of it is out of date by anywhere ranging from A Little to A Lot; a degree which is only determinable to the casual reader through trial-and-error. So a certain degree of inefficiency and double-work is near guaranteed.
After that, I would run into questions and google searches tend to help a lot. Just last week I was trying to figure out how to cut a hole in a curved surface and found a forum thread that suggested a good solution. (That solution felt a little weird from a design standpoint, but it worked, and the history was maintainable.)
Searchable forums are tremendously useful for software packages at this level.
