Linux will only be the solution when it finally learns to adequately cater to a better class of idiots. Once Linux handles a fool as well as Windows, then we can talk.

Pretty much. I'd absolutely love to run an idiot proof distro. If one existed.

[-] Marxine@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Mint is right there. Very foolproof as far as I've tested with family and friends.

Can I use Photoshop/lightroom and all the other software I need for work and play yet?

[-] radioactiveradio@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Can you use windows software on Mac or Android? It's a different OS, tho wine and proton can make Photoshop and Lightroom work, it's hit or miss tho. Most games work too save anti-cheat ones for some reason.

It wasn't trying to be snarky, just genuinely asking because I'd love to switch to Linux and check in now and then but until I can safely work with heavy graphics processes on it reliably, I can't switch. Main tools are DaVinci Resolve, Photoshop+LR, Blender, and Inkscape. For personal I make music with Bitwig (which has a Linux version I know that) and some other stuff, and I game on it now and then (drone simulator on Steam with a radio controller on usb, sometimes a bit of WoW), but these days I mostly game downstairs on the Xbox anyway.
