Perhaps most importantly to the makerverse, STEP, SAT, and IGES file types can no longer be exported, the most common files for those who want to edit a design using different software.

Thankfully this still includes STL files but alas, DXF, DWG, PDF exports are all gone

Exports are now limited to a small number of file types.

Project storage is limited to 10 active and editable documents.

The clear message from Autodesk is that Fusion 360 - the widely used suite of CAD and CAM software - will still offer a free-to-use non-commercial license for design and manufacturing work, with the inclusion of a few very big “buts” that may be deal-breakers for some people. That may be a reach, but judging by the reaction of the Fusion 360 community to the announced changes to the personal use license, they’re pretty much hating life right now.
