Hundreds have people have requested native support for Linux (not cloud software - local installs) but IMO it deserves a renewed look specifically now because of the end of windows 10 support. Older Windows 10 computers without upgraded TPM cannot move to Windows 11, and the remaining best option is Desktop Linux.

However, for creative users this will would be a lot easier with support from Adobe for CC on Linux. The next best alternative is to move away from Photoshop and CC altogether and to move to other softwares. This is not an idea solution for Adobe nor for customers, and this is something many people have been asking for over a rather long time.

...if there was ever a right time for this, it is now.

App installs and updates

Hundreds of replies does not mean hundreds of people. This should be obvious, no? Only a small number of users actually post on the forums. Pretty diengenuous reply tbh.

Secondly - this is a circular issue. People that are holding back from moving to Linux is partly due to lack of support from major softwares they require for their daily workflow on the OS. Then those software community members (you - case in point) point to smaller number of Linux users as the problem...

It's not Windows apps in general. WINE exists. It's not Steam any more, it's not Blender, it's not Office (all are working to some degree on Linux). It's **Adobe** and a few other roadblocks.
