That’s a huge increase.

    I also switched because gaming just started to work. Gave Linux a try every 6-12 months for like almost a century but both the desktop and gaming performance always were subpar.

    Until 3 years ago when I once again tested Linux and both GNOME and KDE were super snappy to use, gaming worked mostly out of the box via Proton and all the applications I need for work, worked on Linux or had an even better alternative.

    Stuck with dual booting for one more year because I couldn’t get VR to work properly. Now I’m 100% on Linux since 2 years.

    The speed at which things have improved in those 3 years is amazing. Things went from “needs some tinkering” to “just install it”. Performance went from mediocre to blazing fast. Software support went from “need to compile from source” to “download the AppImage/Flatpak”.

        Yes, the Adobe suite is hard to replace and unfortunately that won’t change very soon without a native version or Wine support getting much better.

        As for alternatives, I assume you have already tried GIMP, Krita, Inkscape, LibreOffice and OnlyOffice? I know for many people they are not suitable replacements but I guess it’s the best that’s available right now.
