    Adobe Suite?

    Affinity Suite?

    Proton Drive?

    Editing in Davinci? (free version of DaVinci Resolve on Linux cannot playback any H.264 or H.265 video, and the free and paid version cannot playback AAC audio on Linux…)

    You know, anything productive?

      Davinci Resolve

      Use Kdenlive

      Adobe

      I don’t use them but according to winehq it somewhat runs well.

      Affinity

      Well yeah… I used Designer and Publisher extensively when I still used Windows. I asked and begged them to consider a linux version but they didn’t saw the marketplace. Guess we Linux users aren’t productive enough. So instead we have to resort to Inkscape and Krita.

      Proton drive

      Well fuck them for not considering making a filesystem driver for every OS. Especially THE OS most associated with servers and privacy minded users.

      Perhaps migrate to a more open cloud provider like Nextcloud?

        Kdenlive isn’t a replacement for Davinci or Premiere, sorry.

        I rely on either Affinity Designer or Adobe Illustrator to run my business. Inkscape and Krita are not capable of professional work.

        I pay for Proton, so I am not going to say fuck it because they, like most companies, don’t look at Linux Desktop as a real OS. Sorry.

          Why not? Because the tools are different?

          Imagine that, that different tools have different workflows. How utterly awful.

          And you are not sorry at all.

          But hey you like windows, being vendor locked in, getting spied upon, having to deal with shitty decisions and bloat. That’s your prerogative. We don’t.

            Are you really that dense? Different tools don’t equal different workflows. It means some things aren’t possible on kdenlive that people need to use in their professional work.

            That’s like saying paint is a replacement for Photoshop. Enjoy trying to professionally edit photos with paint.

            But hey, you like Linux, trying to troubleshoot why your graphics card doesn’t work, begging companies to release a Linux version of software, trying to hunt around for hardware that supports your Linux distribution.

              Yes, tools that aren’t drop-in replacement have often different workflows. thats simply a fact. It doesn’t imply that those tools have features that aren’t available in others.

              your words, not mine. You can pretty much do nearly everything in krita that you can do in photoshop. Perhaps RAW support isnt there though.

                    Lmao Linux users cope with the “I don’t care, I don’t even want it” excuses. Comes out so naturally when you have to give up nearly everything on Linux.

                    Just because the tools aren’t one for one compatible doesnt mean they don’t have equivalent features.

                    Sure, Photoshop has a few (dozen) features that Krita doesn’t, but no one uses those anyway.

                    You can’t have both.

          don’t look at Linux Desktop as a real OS

          Linux runs like 90% of the world’s servers. You can’t even get half of Microsoft’s shitty software on AWS. Not to mention that development outside of C# (even that’s a pain in the ass to deploy) on Windows is an exercise in BDSM.

          But sure buddy, whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep at night. I’m sure you’re making 10x more money than the rest of us as a (checks notes) photo and video editor 🙄

            Linux having dominate market share in the server market doesn’t mean anything when it comes to the desktop market. Proton isn’t making Drive for servers, it’s a consumer product.

            I don’t know what the person you replied to does for a living, but a lot of people make a shit load of money using some of the software mentioned, not that it should matter either way.

            People like you give Linux users a bad name. You’re either a troll or too dogmatic to have any common sense.

                Commercial app support has always been a weakness of the Linux desktop. That’s nothing new. The only thing really helping is Electron (for better or worse), but that isn’t ideal for media apps.

                As much as I’d love to use the Gimp for all my photo needs, it’s not as good as Photoshop or Affinity Photo. I gave up even trying years ago. Can someone get the job done… sure. Can they do it faster and easier on an OS with more commercial app support, probably. That doesn’t mean Linux sucks, it just isn’t perfect for everything. This isn’t even a flaw with the OS, just its low market share and ethos have kept commercial apps away, which in turn hurts its ability to grow. It’s kind of a chicken and egg problem.

              They totally are the same thing, it’s called a Linux Distribution and you run the same exact software that runs on a server. There’s not Debian Desktop and Debian Server, it’s just one distribution. It’s clear you’re just looking to be dismissive without really understanding what you’re talking about.

              It’s not like whatever software you can’t do your job without would have to be written twice for Linux Servers and Desktops, it’s the same thing. Where again is this distinction you’re trying to make?

                Debian doesn’t make that distinction, but Ubuntu does. And even on the distros that don’t, you’d have to be an idioit to deny that the suite of applications desktop users use and the suite of applications you would ever, and I mean ever, deploy on a server have pretty close to zero overlap.

                  That’s great you found a distribution that has two different images, one for desktop and and one for server. Does that mean that the desktop version of Ubuntu isn’t a “real” operating system as Polar says? Only the server distribution is a “real” operating system? That was the whole crux of the argument to begin with.

                    No, it’s saying that your “proof” that Linux is a viable operating system in all spaces simply because it is the primary operating system in the server space is invalid.

                  Linux isn’t trying to compete with Windows for the desktop market. Making fun of it for failing to do that is dishonest at best. It caters to the very specific needs and wants of programmers, and it does that incredibly well. The fact that it can now run some quite high-end art and video production packages is a bonus, and if Linux is one day able to present itself as a viable alternative to Apple’s walled garden and Microsoft’s data-mining adware, so much the better, but no one with an ounce of sense (coughgardinerbryantcough) would seriously argue that Linux will be ready for mass adoption at any point within the next ten years.

                    Linux isn’t trying to compete with Windows for the desktop market. Making fun of it for failing to do that is dishonest at best.

                    2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 IS THE YEAR OF LINUX!!!

                    It caters to the very specific needs and wants of programmers, and it does that incredibly well.

                    Too bad Linux users don’t understand this. Lemmy is full of Linux nerds acting like Linux is a viable replacement to Windows/MacOS, when it’s not for the majority of users.

                    The fact that it can now run some quite high-end art and video production packages is a bonus

                    Ya, despite the fact Davinci free cannot edit h.264 or h.265 video on Linux, or that neither the free or PAID versions can use AAC audio. Very professional.

                    but no one with an ounce of sense (coughgardinerbryantcough) would seriously argue that Linux will be ready for mass adoption at any point within the next ten years.

                    You’ve guys been saying this for decades lol.
