Why is there no "Blender Static" for users that don't need photorealism and aniamtion.
Why is there no "Blender Basic" for new users?
Why is there no "Blender Stage Designer" for theator directors planing stage layouts?
Why is there no "Blender Viewer" that is only for viewing 3d models?
Why is there no "Blenderino" that is so simple that every iPad kid can use it.
Blender is open source, they could easily disable and hide stuff and release ten dumbed down versions for special use cases.

Software developer here, maintaining releases takes effort and it's honestly not very fun effort. They probably deem it's not worth maintaining different versions like that.
And from the user side that kind of fragmentation can make it harder to get help in case you run into problems.

They announced an Ipad version a couple of months ago, with an android version that should come after, they want to add a simpler interface and all that too, but it is blender so all this shit will come in 2028 at best.

>Blender Static" for users that don't need photorealism and aniamtion.
Just use stylized textures and don't animate your models?
>"Blender Basic" for new users?
It's called B For Artists
>"Blender Stage Designer" for theator directors planing stage layouts?
This is extremely niche. Just use an architecture program.
>"Blender Viewer" that is only for viewing 3d models?
How about you just don't go into edit mode? Just navigate with WASD or manipulate the camera with the mouse.
>"Blenderino" that is so simple that every iPad kid can use it.
Already announced.

This thread has the stench of the local schizo /3/tard.

Each one of those has to be separately maintained and tested with each "core" blender update, just in case a new change or addition breaks something in one of them.
