  1. yabridge

    A modern and transparent way to use Windows VST2, VST3 and CLAP plugins on Linux

    I would say it is worth it, I've tried a lot of DAWs and Bitwig is the first one I really truly liked, but as you said, VST support is all over the place. I personally started using Yabridge so that I could use windows VSTs on Linux and so far all of the ones I've tried work. If you are really new to Linux or aren't familiar with working on terminals, then it is a bit of a pain to set up but you can DM me if you need help setting it up.

  3. airwave

    Airwave is a WINE-based VST bridge, that allows for the use of Windows 32- and 64-bit VST 2.4 audio plugins with Linux VST hosts

    VST-wise the situation is decent on Linux. WINE supports a good amount and works pretty well now. I've seen some comments here saying Bitwig supports 32-bit plugins natively and I don't know about that since I switched back to Windows a year ago, but when I was using it, I had to use a bridge, and I used one called Airwave, which worked great. You set each plugins up once and then if it works, it works without issues after that!
