I dual boot Linux with windows 10 for more than 10 years now, networking from windows is just unacceptable for me, on Linux you can also add any games that you want, if Adobe wouldn't keep resisting I would be totally free of Windows! They were always trash

At this point I'm starting to wonder if Microsoft is paying Adobe to not work on Linux. For most people I know, Adobe is the main reason for not switching.

Maybe you can try Adobe through CrossOver Linux's demo and see if it works? They contribute lots of work towards Wine, but also sell a more 'hacky' commercial software that isn't as strict about how it does stuff.

After switching to Linux, I will try out their software and decide whether to buy a lifetime license.

I recommend FOSS alternatives to Adobe's garbage. GIMP for a photoshop alternative. Krita for digital art. Inkscape for an Illustrator alternative. Ruffle for the Flash Player Standalone Client. So on and so forth.

Mypaint and Krita are favorite programs that I use daily, but still I can't import those photoshop brushes I accumulated over the years in Krita, the last time I tried the program didn't load anything.
