I’ve always had some interest in learning more about switching to Linux from Windows and the news lately has made me even more so; however, I have to use Adobe apps every day for work and school, and from what I know, there’s no great compatibility solution for them in Linux, and I don’t have hardware strong enough that I feel confident that they would perform well in Wine/a VM. Not sure what a good solution for my use case would be
I know open source office alternative play pretty well with the proprietary file types now, perhaps the same is true for GIMP and whatever other graphicy stuff? Worth looking into.
If you have to go back and forth with PSDs, GIMP falls of with layers and such.
I had it happen that it basically rolls which ones to open every time on a layer heavy PSD.
