Is it pointless to buy the Affinity Suite and try get it running on Linux?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I regularly uses Affinity software, Krita, and GIMP.
Affinity software is way better designed and more feature-packed for graphic design. Affinity software avoids a lot of complexity of Adobe and make it easier for newcomer.
GIMP is not even close.
Krita on other hand is only suitable for basic image editing, not full-blown design software. It's created for drawing-related stuff after all... You only can recommend Krita for people that looking for Clip Studio Paint, Medibang, or ibis Paint alternative.
