The people editing their images in Blender are the same people who edit their videos in Blender lol.
Has it gotten better with editing? I tried a couple of years ago and just couldn't. It's amazing for the 3d software. If they could make it easier to measure things, I'd use it for CAD too.
Maybe I'm doing too much engineering - I found Open SCAD to be way easier than Blender for making stuff, and that's saying something because Open SCAD is quite a pain.
I hate the syntax in OpenSCAD. It LOOKS like something object-oriented but it is procedural, causing oh so many footguns, if one expects it to act like OOP.
I'm a mostly procedural thinker, even though I program in OOP all day long. OpenSCAD works a lot like the rest of my code: write it, try it, look at the results, curse, revise it, try it, look at the results, curse differently... you get there eventually. I do highly suggest not coding a masterpiece in OpenSCAD without visualizing the components first.
