Wine and crossover can probably meet the needs of most of your windows app needs at this point, which realistically aren’t a lot if you look into it, and keep a windows vm / cloud instance handy. Why not try a vm of Linux on your windows machine (or use WSL) to get your toes in the water to see if your assumptions are still correct today?
I tried. I have very peculiar needs, I’m not joking when I say I use shitty old programs from before the millennium AT LEAST EVERY WEEK. Very specific niches that I have found no solutions for on Linux.
Essentially, I need Windows for it’s main selling point. Insane compatibility on software from every field. And until Linux can actually RIVAL windows instead of presenting Fisher price alternatives, I’m forced to stay with the shackles of blasphemy.
I’ve tried it in the past. The actual UI and the general process of doing things was the least of my issues. I’m not loyal to Windows or anything at all, I can easily get used to that.
