What are some of your favorite Linux apps that you use
This one might be controversial, but Winapps for Linux, app that lets run apps from within a Windows KVM as if it were native on your Linux system (https://github.com/Fmstrat/winapps)
-
Does Visual Studio 2022 exist on Arch Linux?
Yes but you have to run visual studios in a windows virtual machine qemu/kvm/virtmanager Then pass virtual studio window to your desktop so it runs like it is native https://github.com/Fmstrat/winapps optional Then use winapps to make a desktop and application launcher menu entry/icon
- STOP USING WINE. DARE
- Should I switch to Linux as a guitarist?
-
I hate Windows but
Have you considered running https://github.com/Fmstrat/winapps to integrate Outlook, Adobe, etc. right into gnome?
Personally, I use Windows 11 VM for MS office and other proprietary apps. Then I use Winapps to launch the apps without fiiring the VM. This way you can run Adobe photoshop and almost anything.
- Just switched to Pop!_OS. Any suggestions?
-
I thinking move for Pop_os, but...
A slightly more complex but definitely worthy solution I have discovered lately is winapps. It has a very detailer installation guide to enable RDP via Windows VM, and so far it has worked flawlessly with Adobe Acrobat, Office, and Affinity apps.

Just switched to linux yesterday, loving it!!!!
And there is always winapps for everything else https://github.com/Fmstrat/winapps
-
I really like Linux, but I also really dislike LibreOffice
I talked about this in a post on a Linux subreddit. My solution was to install a Windows 11 VM and Install MS office. I use WinApps to run the apps without manually firing the VM.

DirectX 12 Support on macOS
It's Wine with some special sauce (Apple couldn't reuse VKD3D because they chose to invent Metal rather than stick with OpenGL/Vulkan so they had to build their graphics translation themselves). Crossover is built on the same technology. In fact, Apple's brew script literally links to Crossover's sources: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apple/homebrew-apple/main/...
Things like the crypto API should be implemented if you can find the reference for your specific API calls here: https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/tree/master/dlls/crypt32
Apple's version of Wine is aimed at developers, though. It shouldn't take too long for someone to make an app or script to easily set up environments with the developer runtime, but I doubt they'll support it as well as Valve supports Proton. If your application of choice doesn't need any fancy graphics, there's a decent chance Wine/Crossover can already run it anyway, no need to mess with Apple's SDK.
With the M2 Max outputting 28fps at 1080p (screenshot linked), I wouldn't expect too much from the gaming performance of this thing, though.

Proton GE vs Proton
heres a small different of wine versions, Proton : https://github.com/ValveSoftware/wine/blob/f0b3d09ad69ddfc27dbd850bd6b365da6683fa08/VERSION (Wine 6.3), and Proton GEs wine version: https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/blob/2f5f8b4bd4cb5771223d1ee96a55002d18ad01eb/VERSION (Wine 7.0RC2), and the DXVK have a month difference on commits, which does suggest Proton GE is more newer compared to normal proton, Though you might be right on proton Experimental, Though I havent checked.

Everyone should chill about what SteamOS can run, today, when the deck comes out, because eventually it’ll be perfect
Proton is open source.. Wine is open source.. DXVK is open source. These projects improve day over day because of the contributions of enthusiasts who wouldn't be there if they weren't open source.
