Photoshop Lightroom - Windows: both run fine (sometimes faster) - Linux: GIMP + darktable? Pretty capable really, but a lot of people have strong opinions on anything that isn't Photoshop + Lightroom Sequel Pro - Windows / Linux: MySQL workbench covers a lot of the same territory iTerm 2, Homebrew: - Windows: Ubuntu on Windows or (cygwin, mingw, console2) + (chocolatey, oneget, ...) - Linux: Plenty of solid options for terminal emulators, pick your favorite distro and it will have a solid package manager. I would argue that Linux has been doing terminal and package management longer and better than Mac + Windows Sketch - There have been a plethora of web-based UX/UI design tools in the last few years that don't suck. Transmit - I'm probably the wrong person to ask. I'd just use the terminal, but maybe Filezilla? Alfred - A lot of built-in search and hotkeys on Windows and many Linux distros, add additional tools on top for a lot of flexibility. Reeder, Airmail - No suggestions here... looks nice Spotify - Spotify on Windows or Linux Windows has decent HiDPI handling, but probably not as nice as Mac. Linux if you want to take the time to tweak it can work pretty well on HiDPI (I'm on a MacBook Pro running Linux in xfce).
