  • yabridge

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

  • DAW-wise we have Bitwig which is incredible, and also REAPER and Ardour if you're more into the traditional linear workflow (and also a bunch of others, but I'd go with one of those three). There are also quite a few commercial plugin vendors that support Linux nowadays, and if you don't don't messing with Wine, most Windows plugins that don't use crazy DRM schemes also run fine under Wine. You're entering power user territory there of course, but I developed yabridge a couple years ago to make this experience work as best as I possibly could.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • photoshopCClinux

    Photoshop CC v19 installer for Gnu/Linux

  • The only thing that might hold certain people back is the lack of Photoshop, which can be achieved, but its a little more fiddly. I've got to say though, I don't think I've needed to use Photoshop for anything in over a year.
