I've never had any trouble running adobe software on Linux.
I've also never tried, but still the statement is technically correct.

I'm laughing way too hard at this.
Honestly this is the best answer.
Like, use the tools that work for your use case?
I fucking hate macs but man using a video editor on windows was a pain back in the day. Where I would rather set up a server on Linux, than use whatever the hell windows servers operate.
The answer is very much "Don't run Photoshop"
(Fuck Adobe. There, I said it)
"It is always ethical to pirate adobe"
It's never unethical to pirate Adobe, but it's always more ethical to use Free Software instead and deny Adobe the mindshare.
It's far more ethical to make the company lose money
Minimum amount for photoshop is 22$/month
Pirate photoshop
Delete it
Pirate again
Repeat 30 times
Adobe looses 660$
If everyone does this adobe will loose so much
Investors hate this one glitch!
They don't care as they have a massive profit margin. What matters more is the market share. You got to break the standard way of thinking industry wide.

What? This is a normal headphone dongle for macs.
Don't be ridiculous, mac users have neat and tidy usb hubs. iPhone users on the other hand...

I was taking to my sister, who is an artist, about setting up Linux and warned them about poor Adobe support. Their response was "⭐ 𝒻𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝒶𝒹𝑜𝒷𝑒 ⭐" due to their AI shenanigans and high costs.
So thanks modern Adobe for making it easier for people to switch to Linux.
Are you trying to use a guitar as an input device for PhotoShop?
Are you criticizing my MIDI art?
*Audiophile screeching in the distance as you enjoy perfectly fine 48k through this bad boy
I was hoping I could plug it into my guitar & watch the sounds on an old computer monitor…

Say what you will, this is an efficient and elegant way to store your adapters. I’m envious.

I just went through this last night....VMware workstation +windows 10 + passthrough.
There are Linux users trying to use Photoshop?
As a challenge... for science 👀...
Photoshop cs2 is ~~free to download~~ and probably works well on wine as its old as hell.
Edit: Correction. You used to o be able to download cs2 from adobe website. This is no longer the case.
GIMP has always been able to do what I needed more or less. Its got a learning curve and sometimes I still dont 100% how something works but for basic photo editing, meme making, and converting photos to different file types (why is .webp not universally supported yet?) Its pretty good.
When theres a problem doing something in GIMP it always felt like the issue was my own understanding of the toolset conbined with not-great documentation being given. I never felt like I encountered the limits of the program itself.
I'm sure if you are a professional graphics person who needs advanced tools theres things only PS can provide and its user interface is probably more friendly. But for me, the average joe schmo, GIMP gets the job done 95% of the time with little to no headache.
Some people do overestimate how much of the software they’re actually using, and how far back some features go. I learned the little PS I know using a 7.0 license my father bought, I used it for years doing 2D graphics and web “design”, and still basically still have the same workflow with minor differences to avoid destructive changes.

I don’t use Adobe, I make money just fine without it.
Not too hard with WinApps. I just use GIMP.
Love the rs232 to scsi adapter that thing is dope.
You can skip 3 of these adapters if you upgrade to the latest libraries, downgrade your microcode, turn off WiFi, and bench press a goat. It turns out it was the goat involved I'm the process, rather than the sacrifice, that made that stuff work.
What's so funny? This is how we played multiplayer Doom in 94.
Use Krita instead
Krita is a different kind of tool used for drawing, but still really good. I don't even know the adobe way to do this lol.
Gimp would be image post processing software like photoshop is. Also Inkscape is a vector graphics software like adobe illustrator.

Add one more adapter to plug that 1/4" into a sound card, plug a printer into the other end, and then hire Abdul Alhazred to write a Cups driver.
Gimp sucks.
And ps works with wine if you have it on windows already and drag over some system32 dlls
Gimp used to suck. Gimp 3 is amazing. Krita is great. Inkscape is OK.
Having all three requires less space than Photoshop and Illustrator and covers about every feature of both.

Gimp doesn't suck as an image editor, it just sucks as a Photoshop clone, which it was never meant to be. It's an amazing image editor.
