" still unwilling to pay for commercial software" and I suppose you have hard data to backup such stupid rhetorics, right? That's not with such uninformed comment that we are going to make progress on the discussion. If you don't like linux fine, but please stop spreading fud!

Last I heard, the Linux market hadn't changed much (still tiny, still unwilling to pay for commercial software). Yes, we're all watching the Steam Linux port.

That's a decision above my pay grade, but I've heard nothing to indicate the status quo on Linux support is changing. Personally, I am still watching Valve's Steam port with at least some curiosity, however.

Unfortunately, I haven't had time to look further at porting the next level of frameworks after I got the (tiny) Lua debugging core port working. 😞

Linux users are willing to pay for good stuff even more than average Mac or Win users do (look the http://www.humblebundle.com/ statistics). I moved to Linux 9 years ago and still haven't managed to solve all of the issues with RAW editing software on Linux. I have been very close buying BibbleLabs (now Corel Aftershot) licence but the trial experience was not so good. Still hoping Adobe provides Bridge + CameraRAW or LightRoom for Linux users soon.

It's time to think about a change. For many years I'm a user of Adobe Lightroom. It runs on a Windows XP system, but now I've to update my system. I used this system just for Lightroom. For any other tasks I use Linux.
Dear Adobe management, please support the Linux community with a portation of Lightroom on Linux. I've decided to completely change to Linux with or without you. It would be more helpful with you, but other software solutions than yours are waiting for you ignoring a change in system landscape. Apple also tried to ignore Android, but now ....

Best regards

I've purchased AfterShot Pro to work with my photos on Linux. But I feel lack of support for this product from Corel. I'd be glad to purchase Lightroom if it has Linux support. That is ridiculous for me to use Windows or MacOS only for one program. I understand that every investment should be paid back and I really, really hope that market is already ready for Lightroom Linux version. I am the one who is waiting for that small miracle. 😃
