For now I'm happy with Windows 10 LTSC on my main rig. I use Debian on my laptop and Ubuntu on my server. I don't know what I'll do in 2032 when LTSC support ends. I'd like to go to Debian on my main rig but some software simply won't work without hassle (if at all). I hope that changes until then, I love Debian with KDE Plasma.
By 2032 Wine will probably be advanced enough to run any Windows program
Out of curiosity, what software? It won't run with Wine? Maybe there's a decent enough alternative?
The Adobe stuff, Vst's, etc.
Tons of VST's work using yabridge.
Not Native Instruments though (their VST's should work but I can't get Native Access to run). And I don't run any VST's that need iLok.
Yabridge has a bug with wine versions later than (I think) 9.22, where the VST thinks the mouse is in another place than it really is.
Solutions are : make sure the VST window is at 0,0, or use an older version of wine, or there is a patch for yabridge that works in most cases, but hasn't been merged in yet. I'm running that.
