Obviously inspired by the Wikipedia comparison table, but curated with an eye to the hobbyist needing 3D design, and with updated pricing where I could find it, as well as a few high-level usability notes. Suggestions and corrections are welcome.

You've done good work, but that website is terrible on mobile

Lol, first I had it on cryptpad, which is the same Onlyoffice base, but behind so many layers of encryption that a 23 line spreadsheet takes 3-5 minutes to load up the first time... on Desktop. I'm open to solutions to move the thing. Does Lemmy support tables in its markup?

You are generous and benevolent for suffering my complaining with grace and tact. I was owed nothing and yet you delivered. May the gods of foss shower you with donations and contributors in all your future endeavors.

I'm other words, thanks bro, sweet.
