Fusion360 is great for cnc lathe work and post processor modification is perfectly possible. I always use a space mouse and a normal mouse for cad/cam work. I tried with a few different cad/cam systems running in a vm etc and gave up. You will always get best results to my knowledge running in windows ie what OS the said system is most used in, tested, developed and supported in by the company that makes it. Community support for fusion360 is reasonable for most stuff. I bought a license specifically for the lathe cam. So far I am fairly happy. It solved a problem for me.
