Have you tried Bottles and/or Wine?

I've never had a problem running anything from the Adobe or Microsoft Suite for example, in fact I think they run waaay smoother on linux

But yea I get it, a lot of people associate compatibility with gaming only.

Really? So I could use my Wacom Cintique and my 2024 versions of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Animator on Linux then? Because I use them to make a living and if I cannot use them on Linux easily then there is no point.

As a former Linux user from the early 00’s the biggest hurdle was art software and convincing Linux users that Adobe software means more than just Photoshop…..

Premiere Pro runs smoother on Linux than on Win7-10 ever did

After effects felt the same as PP

So far I haven't run into any program wine/bottles can't run. Closest I got was needing to install a second program through wine and run them through the same prefix which is not hard at all
