In the past Microsoft has an offline os without any data collecting which runs on everything.
Now we have a data cloud collector os full of advertisement, which will go completely in the cloud in the near future. At 2025 many working systems will be electronic waste, or you have to pay.
Adobe has not to support all Linux distributions. They should concentrate on one LTS distribution like Ubuntu 22.04. which Linux they will support is totally equal for me. But I want to leave Microsoft. But I can't because of Microsoft big brother Adobe.
How big are the performance lost of running Adobe cloud in wine?
Never heard that it will work. Is it possible to see a video howi have to install and how it perform?

My understanding is that earlier versions of Photoshop and Lightroom will work in Wine, but the current versions (Adobe CC) will not. I've read that there's no way to make it work in Wine and perhaps that was deliberate.
I agree with you, any version of Linux will do. The fact that Linux is fragmented is a spurious argument. It doesn't matter. Whatever version of Linux Adobe would port to, we would come to them.
Again, Adobe CC is a niche product. Arguing that it needs to only support the most popular operating systems (osx and windows) is specious, as the REASON we professional photographers are ON osx or windows is BECAUSE that's where Adobe CC runs. Adobe has cause and effect reversed.
My Adobe CC machine is essentially a console. I don't do anything else with it. And as such, it doesn't matter how general-purpose the OS is.

I really don't understand why this dicussion keeps rolling on and on, repeating itself over and over, when the answer has been so clearly stated by Adobe officials, again over and over.
Photoshop for Linux will happen the day it makes business sense to do so. Until that day, it will not happen.
There isn't anything else to say. That's the one and only answer.

Nope. This is not true it's false. More OS like Fedora or Ubuntu it's expand as whole of Portfolio of product. Is rather question how hard would be target :direct_hit: Linux and if would be even harder to maintenance that production Version of this linux build target :direct_hit: If after setup Software chained to Linux output - will be effortless to maintain that already would Adobe has that product. As was said before - they has supper taletned people on board - so it's only tech issue of library and compile stack.Why? Ideal situation will be changes/fix/maintain occure version to version on main codebase and output target set Linux do not make additional Linux related bug.

'Nope. This is not true it's false'
Of course it is true. If Adobe thought it was financially worth doing they would do it.
As evidenced by the comments from staff - to date they do not. Remember business sense means , porting, maintaining, compatibility with the future roadmap, training developers and support staff, integration with other Adobe products...etc The most important of all is Return on Investment, without that, there is no business case.
Business sense and technical difficulty are not the same thing.

Yep. There is web standards ( like WebGL, WebAssembly, etc) and AI and it's push out old aproche to make applications in FOSS and Commercial licence that is now not Tightly stich to only that or this OS.

I wish you guys would stop blowing-up my mailbox with this rediculous fantasy. Adobe won't port to Linux because Linux users won't stand for this overbearing, subscription-based collection of bloatware taking over their entire system. If the alternative tools already available for Linux aren't good enough they will gladly devote a Windows PC or Mac to Adobe to keep this crapware off their Linux box.

I'm a, agree - The interoperability that brought by AI ( that started in mass-scale ) last year and web technology stanadard - brings good news to provaide Desktop/Mobile/PaaS/SaaS to Any OS

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.

Still, it's been 3 years ago, and a lot changed since then. I am not here to discuss that with You Dave, I was advised by Adobe customer service to post this request here. I got the link, so I posted as I was advised. Now it's a matter of waiting and seeing if they still ignore that. I will miss Photoshopp and Lightroom, but if they are not willing, then they are not willing.
