To be fair, this is not for CS5 compatibility specifically (that was one of the more visible impacted apps), but multi-threaded applications that continuously poll for mouse state against a non-thread safe state-cache introduced in an earlier version.
Also wine is not linux, and photoshop is not a linux program. If you want to run Linux only, then alternatives like krita, gimp etc.. exist that work natively. While I admit they often don't line up with adobe's tools yet, Krita's come a long way from what I've been told, and for a good portion of basic photoshop tasks (rgb only for the most part) you can use gimp quite effectively.
As a non-graphic designer I use linux daily and love it. I only keep windows around for the few windows-only games I still play
- notrly 9y ago> alternatives Don't know about Krita, but Gimp still (?) has no good CMYK support, so buh bai printing industry. Not an alternative.
- uhhhhhhh 9y agoKrita + Gimp can cover nearly all use cases from my understanding. Yes, as I mentioned GIMP doesn't really have CMYK support so that's limited to RGB editing (web, digital etc..), however Krita has it and has come a long ways. So I'll double down on my statement that a good 20-30% of photoshop use cases can be covered by GIMP, with the exception of non-RBG requirements like printing that could possibly move to Krita or other tools.

- tambourine_man 9y agoUnfortunatly, there are no serious Photoshop alternatives. On any platform. It's very sad, but true.
