Curious about the stability of using Photoshop with Wine or a VM. Photoshop and Marvelous Designer are the only apps I use that aren’t on linux. I wonder if using Wine for Photoshop would be simplified if people try a version like m0nkrus that doesn’t require the creative cloud.

For PS your only options are:

  • run an ancient version of PS on Wine
  • Subscribe to creative cloud and run PS online-only web version which has 80% of the features
  • Use Photopea which has 95% of the features but it's online only
  • Use GIMP (horrible UX/UI but it's offline and has 90% of the features)
  • Use Krita (not the same, but some features are there)

I went with CC PS web, since I work for a company that requires the use of PS.

Why not use a modern version of PS without creative cloud so it doesnt break it?

They crash or are painfully slow.
