Blender, an open-source 3D software tool, initially required users to right-click for selections, setting it apart from other design tools. For many years, its difficult user experience limited its user base to those who could not afford expensive software. In 2019, Blender underwent a significant redesign, including a switch to left-click selections, enhancing the user interface and introducing new competitive features. Subsequently, downloads remarkably increased from tens of thousands to nearly 1 million per month, indicating a surge in user adoption.
