Why is there no "Blender Static" for users that don't need photorealism and aniamtion.
Why is there no "Blender Basic" for new users?
Why is there no "Blender Stage Designer" for theator directors planing stage layouts?
Why is there no "Blender Viewer" that is only for viewing 3d models?
Why is there no "Blenderino" that is so simple that every iPad kid can use it.

Blender is open source, they could easily disable and hide stuff and release ten dumbed down versions for special use cases.

Software developer here, maintaining releases takes effort and it's honestly not very fun effort. They probably deem it's not worth maintaining different versions like that.
And from the user side that kind of fragmentation can make it harder to get help in case you run into problems.

They announced an Ipad version a couple of months ago, with an android version that should come after, they want to add a simpler interface and all that too, but it is blender so all this shit will come in 2028 at best.

Becsuse its free. Duh.
>>
>>1019844
Why would you want any of that?
>>
>>1019844
People who want dimbeddown stuff will just use AI or Daz or Koikatsu or whatever

They have millions of dollars and refuse to hire. This isn’t a problem in professional 3D, this is blatant laziness by the foundation.
>>
>>1019854
Oh, that's you

>>1019855
Blender doesn’t want better animation tools, that’s clearly Blender fault while other people had built better plugins for Blender. See how wrong you are.

>Blender Static" for users that don't need photorealism and aniamtion.
Just use stylized textures and don't animate your models?
>"Blender Basic" for new users?
It's called B For Artists
>"Blender Stage Designer" for theator directors planing stage layouts?
This is extremely niche. Just use an architecture program.
>"Blender Viewer" that is only for viewing 3d models?
How about you just don't go into edit mode? Just navigate with WASD or manipulate the camera with the mouse.
>"Blenderino" that is so simple that every iPad kid can use it.
Already announced.

This thread has the stench of the local schizo /3/tard.

The Blender Foundation spends 100% of their funds. If it refuses to hire it's not because it has the money laying around and and is doing nothing with it but because it chose to prioritize other areas.

>People don't give a fuck about Cycles 2, Eevee 2, geometry nodes or the video editor and they just want a good modeling / sculpting / texturing program.
>>
>>1019872
>Corp tax
>Making money outside the Blender goals
That sure doesn’t sound like they care about Blender being better or spending money wisely.
>>
>>1019886
corporate greed is when you pay taxes

They are a nonprofit organization, since they got money outside the goals of Blender it means they earn outside of Blender’s goals. They never cared about 3D or you.
>>
>>1019883
I care about Eevee 2 and geonodes, don't care about Cycles or video editor. Blender is already a good modeling and sculpting program, texturing is definitely lacking both in terms of shader nodes and painting.
