Anyone here working on Figma Desktop in Linux? It is the one activity that keeps me from completely shifting to Linux from Windows since it is something I do when I work remotely.

Would something like Bottles help? Or are there even simpler ways that do not involve working from the browser or looking for alternatives?

from what i can tell, syncing fonts with your system fonts, faster performance (the web app can sometimes take ages to load a workspace), and maybe better handling of offline files

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.
