Over 100K users downloaded Zorin OS 18 in 48 hours, and more than 70% came from Windows, possibly driven by the end of Windows 10 support.

    do you think it will help if the companies making those 3 apps actually extend linux support?

      Absolutely. I am done with Windows. The software is from Serif, the British company behind the Affinity platform, and they have a big announcement at the end of the month. Fingers crossed it is multiplatform support.

        You can run Affinity on Linux through a custom wine build. https://github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux

        Do you think this software might work with Bottles or similar Windows emulating platforms? Could be worth a shot to be rid of Windows entirely.
