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.

If literally any Adobe competitor released a product for Linux they'd dominate that niche.
gimp noises
I say this as a foss proponent... gimp sucks ass.
Now, Inkscape is Goat, but Gimp is nigh unusable.
There are lots of individual applications that do pretty well in and of themselves (darktable, gimp, krita, etc.) they have varying degrees of niceness. But what Adobe can do has no analogue in Linux land (paid or not) - it's the multi-device interoperability. It makes for unparalleled workflow. I am not an advocate your Adobe - I really wish there was someone else that did it, and I believe it is something worth paying for. Figma maybe? (but it's all cloud and was nearly knocked out by Adobe...)
(FWIW, I've never found gimp to be pleasant to use, but that is only my own subjective experience. Others like it and that's a good thing.)
