Hmmm… that page doesn’t mention the free “personal use” license for hobbyists.

^ This page still exists, and doesn’t mention it is going away, so maybe there is still hope.
The free personal portion was nerfed recently with only a limited of active designs available and other functions blocked or paywalled.
It limits you to 10 editable things at once and I think caps the number of components you can have. I haven't found either of these very restrictive to my use cases as a home user/hobbiest. I hope the personal portion isn't going away, will have to deal with migrating everything and learning new workflows 😭
It works great for me. You push one button to make something read-only or not. There are very few functions that I care about that are blocked. I use it for design and even CAM on a CNC router.
