If you are spending $100/month, you are using plenty of Adobe products.Īll software enterprise is currently migration more and more applications to the web, which will lead to other problems. So, you would even on LINUX need to spend your $60 on Creative Cloud all apps. And as a side note: having a user base on LINUX would not lower the price of the Adobe products. On LINUX (desktop), you do not have the user base. To implement and support a platform, you really need to have the user base. And considering the fact I am hearing whispers of Windows moving its foundation over to a POSIX foundation soon anyway I would say Adobe better get ahead of it all.Īnd if you are there: macOS is based on a BSD UNIX, and macOS is probably more UNIX than Windows. I can say with confidence that if Adobe bought out a Linux version compatible with Ubuntu I would actually move away from Apple to Ubuntu. But, it's all "hackathon" kind of things and nothing anyone would use in a production environment. We have talked to some very smart IT people who do high level security for government and monster media firms and have shared some thoughts on how something like this could be done, including running macOS on Linux. That's not to say that it cannot be done, Janet & I have just never heard of any success stories. If anyone has had any success in getting a Windows version of Adobe apps to run in Linux, I have not heard of it working. I have a feeling that Adobe discovered that the investment they had to make in the Windows and Mac platforms had to be their focus because the Linux platform was not well received. But, everyone was used to their Macs and Windows machines so it got no use. Janet & I demonstrated a few things to the people who created weather graphics. When we were doing work for NBC News, it was on their weather content computers, which were Linux based. There was a time when Adobe offered Illustrator and Photoshop for Linux. I have heard this going back more than 20 years. I would like to take Illustrator and Adobe xD along with me, but it appears short of running VMs there is no other solution.
