P: Provide support for Linux (2011)

I have worked in the computer systems field for over 60 years before retiring. I have worked in early Data Entry, and then as a programmer, systems engineer., and technician.  I was a software engineer developing the OS on a military "minicomputer" project in the early 70s that was smaller than the original IBM PC.  I was also one of the 1st to use the early LINUX OS developed by Linus Torvalds and I helped develop the 1st software for a "Radiation Treatment Planning System" for cancer therapy.  I was an early adopter of the early Apple computers and the IBM PC when it first arrived.

I still use LINUX on my primary SERVER, some workstations, and laptops.  LINUX is still a great OS for servers and for other workstations.  This comment is being written on a small HP Server running "Debian LINUX".  LINUX is still one of the most used OS on small (and many larger) servers, and is far from dead!

I believe the primary reason that Adobe has dropped support for LINUX is due to their inability to buy the "rights" to the OS!  They seem to be buying up all the software they can get!  I have always liked most  Adobe products, but they can't have everything!  I will continue to use LINUX for my servers and on some workstations!  I do use MS Windows on some machines, but mostly small laptops.  I certainly hope that others will not just drop LINUX, but will continue to support Adobe products where they choose.  ADOBE should reconsider their moves and the people and support they will lose!

I understand that this has been introduced in 2011, and back then You did not plan to accommodate our requests.
Linux is not a minor OS any more. More Software developers should acknowledge that.
I am asking for LINUX version of Photoshop because if You already have macOS version which is based on UNIX, and guess what? Linux is also based on UNIX.
Many people migrate to Linux now, and we should be able to have that choice too. Unfortunately, my patience with Windows will end soon, and that means I will migrate to Linux without Adobe apps, which will force me to cancel my subscription.

Are you saying you agree that the other thread should never have been merged into this one?

i think it's wrong to move and amass posts like rhis thread.

@davescm per team this thread is to remain locked. The subject has a definitive answer.

It would be wrong to move current discussions into a locked thread.

and this is why this thead is supposed to be locked.

or a properly built pc.  i've never see a bsod since owning my current computer (~4+ years).

Quit whining and just get a Mac.

You built a machine that crashes twice a day? Congratulations on that...
