Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
Not that it’s Linux fault, but access to and compatibility with popular creative tools like Ableton or Adobe products.
Sure, it’s feasible to use Wine to run these products, but not in any professionally usable manner.
Yes, I am aware there are Linux-friendly alternatives, but they lack the plugins, compatibility, features, and quality of their industry~standard counterparts.
I second this. I use Gimp, but it’s UI and UX is just the worst I’ve ever seen. (It has some great tiny features here and there, though.)
I hope this situation would improve over time, and I’d try to contribute as much as I can. So, fingers crossed. Otherwise, I’m quite happy with Linux being my primary OS for many years.
