Golden Eagle Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Are there plans for linux? Photoshop IS NOT ON LINUX. and there are millions of linux users and many millions more windows users who want to migrate to linux but don't do it because of the lack of design and photo editing software on that platform. It is URGENT Afinity they release their next versions of all their software for linux, as they already do it for the Mac (linux) I don't think it will be difficult to release a version for LINUX debian / Ubuntu.

JT_Allen Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I have considered linux before. However, there is no standardized software installation method (there are 3). The best distro I could find was ZorinOS Pro, which comes with a purchase fee to support development of that OS. The linux world is way too fragmented to be viable for most developers like Serif. Most of the linux software (other than Blender 3D software) can't be used for professional needs due to lacking necessary features. I am just throwing this out there, here is a link to ZorinOS: https://zorin.com/ ZorinOS is the best I could find in terms of usability and built in Wacom tablet support with the least need to use the command line. I have tested at least 5 to 7 Linux operating systems before arriving at ZorinOS. I wasn't just thinking of myself for this, but others also. I can't make the switch without professional grade software is available. Current options in linux won't cut it. That is why I am staying with MacOS. the linux OS world needs to standardize their Application Install to one option and they need to enable paid software options in their stores. Not even the maker of UbuntuOS has made any progress in regards to paid software being installable even though they have had that announcement for years.
