I think the only thing anyone ever misses is the driver and software support. Love wine but some programs will never have full capabilities.

Do you have labour day off and an eight instead of ten or twelve hour work day? It’s because of a general strike. It’s up to you if you think they are effective.

I really do love it. Fedora has been great. Daily tasks and tools seem good. Games!? Amazing! steam has really really impressed me. Everything works for the most part but I am trying my best to figure out how to move on from Adobe (ps, illustrator, premier, after effects, lightroom) for graphics and other music production software (Ableton/ Audition/MPC). There are a few programs that I’m trying to replace but it’s a struggle. I’m open to suggestions but peoples snarky comments to “Just use…” are not helpful unless they understand the capabilities of each program in the first place. Telling me to replace Ableton live with Reaper doesn’t help. Maybe Reaper can replace Audition but Ableton live has different tools and capabilities. A lot of people offer Wine as a suggestion and it works for some things. I don’t mind fiddling a bit but after few hours of trying to adjust settings to get things to work I boot back to Win or use a mac just to get it done. I’m willing to learn some new programs but it’s a struggle for specialized design, art, media programs. All that said I am open to suggestions for programs.

One that seems to be lacking surprisingly is a really nice local music player like musicbee/foobar2000? Maybe it’s the rise in “streaming music” but Clementine and others don’t seem even close to musicbee.
