If anyone has experience in running Fusion 360 on wine plz shout up, that's the last thing I need to work out before switching to Zorin...
It's better with something like Winboat (virtualized windows container) within your OS than something like Wine. This is the same case for other "We don't support Linux officially and actively block it because fuck you" productivity applications like Adobe's suite.
Personally, I moved from Fusion360 to FreeCAD instead, but I haven't heard anything negative about the Winboat method.
Fusion works flawlessly for me in winapps (and I'm sure winboat), but it is s-l-o-w. I probably need to figure out GPU passthrough and it might be bearable... But I haven't had much time to dedicate figuring it out.
