Linux Support for Illustrator on the Desktop

The engineering team at our organization is slowly transitioning to the cloud for it’s raw horsepower, which is something inaccessible on local devices. Meanwhile, we are stuck with MacOS and Windows waiting for things to render.

A good professional (software or media) cost’s close to $150 to 250 an hour. Rendering/Build times are variable costs where the professional is just waiting doing nothing. Cloud compute is a fixed cost.

There are enough case studies from Google Cloud and other cloud providers where companies leveraging virtual desktop infrastructure experienced gains productivity. So many developers are happy with Google bringing Android Studio to Google Cloud natively via Ubuntu Linux and the performance is something unparalleled to local hardware.

I am perplexed as to why Adobe is ignoring the next frontier of workplace productivity? The Cloud.

The cloud runs on Linux. Linux support makes absolute business sense.

Give us Linux support. You could divert some of that useless AI spending and use it for something sensible instead.

pretty please!!!

Please, it is time for Linux support with the current rate of Linux adoption.

Adobe on linux (red hat or similar) is a MUST! Come on Adobe! What are you waiting for?

I don't get it. The entire world revolves around "accessibility" and "inclusion", yet you're being forced to use an OS that forces you to trash tens of thousands of Dollars of excellent hardware, when also everything is about "sustainability". 

I'd also GLADLY switch to Linux. I would have years ago, had running a dual boot system for Adobe ALONE wouldn't have been such a pain. I work with Adobe software since '96. I won't let Microsoft force me to trash 2 perfectly good workstations just because *whatever*. So I'll either have to set up my "home server" to connect to the internet for all my machines or as a cloud replacement via USB or some other hack - because Adobe won't step up. Almost every other software I use professionally exists as a perfectly functioning and well maintained Linux version. the ones that don't don't require online access. 

i created this account to say that it is unacceptable that adobe still does not offer a native linux version. it's just comes out as shady.
it is completely possible to support it, it is not being done because of shady reasons.

Yeah, it's time already for support on linux. It's my dream switching to it, but the unsupported adobe apps keeps pushing me away from it 'cause I use in a professional way. Please consider making this.

My God, the online version of Photoshop is terrible! Photopea, the free version, is infinitely better than that and it even runs smoothly as a web app.

I've switched to Linux and I'm not going back to Windows! This is the last month I'll be paying for Adobe! I've already found at least 3 FREE apps that I'm using instead of Photoshop, and for the others I had already found great FREE substitutes!

My dependence on Adobe is over!

Yes pleeeeaaaase!
