I'll upgrade to 11 Enterprise via massgrave.

Sadly with Adobe and some of my online games not supporting Linux, I have to stick with Windows :/ I'll just try to disable all the telemetry and AI crap via O&O and group policies.

Ya I can't live without Adobe suite so same boat

What is O&O? I'm not to keen on jumping to Linux either, but I REALLY don't like the idea of having recall active and having Microsuck know literally everything I do...

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

O&O Shutup10++ (theoretically works on 11 too)

Not sure what it can do on Home/Pro editions, I've only ever tried it on Enterprise.

That looks awesome, thanks for sharing!

Damn, Adobe doesn't support Linux at all? Guess I'm staying on Windows too :/

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago

No, all the current versions are reported various levels of broken :/ Generally they can't install, so you have to copy an installation from Windows, then there are some that don't load at all, some only load to splash screen, some do work after you patch their broken UI and manually copy some Windows DLL-s. So idk, you might get lucky with the specific program/version/feature combo you need, but it just sounds like a pain to me.

The only way to use Adobe products on Linux are the web apps (which are limited) or in a windows virtual machine (slow) or by dual booting into windows (annoying).

You can run really old versions of Photoshop via Wine. But if your needs are that simple, you can probably just use Photopea.

For my use case of Lightroom for accessing and editing final photos across my computer and phone, and occasional photoshop use (mostly for printing) I am able to get by with the web apps, and windows virtual machine.

I would love to drop adobe. But the Lightroom Mobile cloud storage sync feature is too invaluable to me right now and there is no other option that comes close to that feature.

Ah, yeah - Lightroom itself is their crown jewel these days, let's be honest
