I wanted to share that i was able to get my CD copies of SimCity and SimCity 3000 running on Linux using Lutris to run the installer and configure wine. I can’t believe that Linux has become the way to run old 16/32 bit applications originally designed for Windows. Love it
Whoa! That’s awesome! Idgaf about adobe products but I know this will be the thing to push a ton of people onto linux
There should be bounties to encourage getting specific software working on wine.
And maybe even projects for coordinating work to fix issues wine has with specific software. Something like a wine-adobe-cc community on GitHub where everyone interested can come together.
So how Proton does it?
I would care more for it if it wasn’t an increasing trend of people steared towards Affinity and Canva (which already runs on Wine).
As much as we All hate proprietary software, it’s an important step to getting people away from Windows and on Linux. Small wins but wins nonetheless. They will switch to FOSS one step at a time
