What does /sci/ uses for drawing block diagrams?
I'm polishing a paper and I don't like doing them with powerpoint (I run linux on my personal device and libre office is even worse)
I witness some dude doing them directly in latex but it's too time inefficient.
i also heard inkscape can do the job but i never tried and i'm afraid of the learning curve .

I used Tgif. It is easy, is still being developed but has a lot of quirks.

Inkscape is a bit difficult, but you can easily get used to it in 20 minutes or so if you're only drawing blocks. Don't bother with the freetard tutorials, just play around with the tools.

IPE is a bit easier and works well for including equations/texts.

It does need to be vector graphics though, journals need to rescale your figures so you can't really use raster shit.
