except for industry-specific software like video editing

Unless you're referring to Abode directly, the video and VFX industry has a much bigger presence on Linux.

All the major software offerings (except for Adobe) not only have Linux versions, but some are also first-class offerings on Linux.

Ok, I don't actually know if it's "all", but it's definitely most.

It's been a few decades since I got into it, but can you tell me the best Linux alternatives to Adobe Premiere / After Effects, Final Cut Pro, and AVID? I've tried a few and they tend to have problems with crashing and overall limited functionality.

DaVinci Resolve replaces all of these and does it better (ok maybe not AVID, but I don't know much about that one, so maybe).

Huh now I know. Never heard of it before. I use OpenShot which is FOSS but it's meh.

Resolve unfortunately isn't FOSS but the free version is quite fully featured and the full version is pay-once and not that expensive (also free with some of the Blackmagic hardware like their cameras I think).
