CAD is the one of the few areas where it just outright sucks. I wonder why there isn't an effort to make it a lot better. In terms of productivity software we got davinci resolve which also works on Linux, we got gimp and krita as a semi Photoshop replacement. I am not well versed in audio creation but that is probably another area that isn't as well on Linux sadly. Programming can be done on both, games too.
I'm not well versed in audio work either but Audacity has been around forever. Open source and electronic music demographics overlapped quite nicely in Europe since back when both were less mainstream. There's a surprising number of mature audio tools.
Warning about Audacity: they've been bought by a company that does not seem to have your best interest in mind. They instantly wanted to put in telemetry but the community pushback was huge so they rowed that one back. Right after they talked about saving userdata and sharing that one with their Russian main office. I jumped ship at the first part and just use Tenacity now, a fork.
