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.

office works fine if you use a translation layer like proton. There are also free/open source office suites that are file compatible and way better.
specific versions of Adobe work with proton, but not all. There are better alternatives on Linux for the most part.
pirated or legit makes no difference
what software do people pirate on linux then?
WinRAR
weird. 7 zip works great
