So 2025 is the year I finally move my desktop to Linux and run windows in a VM I guess. I still have a few apps that just do not play nicely in Wine that would make transitioning fully more difficult, but I've been full Linux on my laptop for years. Maybe I can finally make the jump on PC.
Which apps are those? Just curious - I know there are others in this situation and I'm always interested in hearing what apps are the blocking ones for a transition from Windows.
For me it's Fusion 360. The launcher for it opens your browser to log you in via the Web. Wine doesn't seem to support that.
DCS has some sort of time/zone issue preventing me from logging in.
My MX Master scroll wheel behaves oddly.
Other than that it's been not awful since I switched to Linux last month.
