This doesn’t sound like an issue for those who use Fusion frequently, however you may want to find ways to get local files, just to be safe.

    This is my biggest gripe with Fusion 360 after the literal dozens of minutes using it. Why can’t I just save my projects locally?

      I’ve personally switched over to FreeCAD, because of Autodesk signin policy (not this one, fusion kept signing me out forcing me to keep having to log back in). I am excitingly waiting for the next major FreeCAD release since the daily builds are looking extremely promising.

      Because then you wouldn’t be Autodesk’s bitch, and Autodesk really wants you to be their bitch.

      Wait what?

      So when I save my F3D files locally I don’t get the whole project in the file?

        You do. It’s just more tedious, and you may not get some of the collaborative history like component comments and the like.
