From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Software for building d&d 5e player characters? (sh.itjust.works)

I've been using the software Aurora to build character's for a while and I love it, but it's sadly no longer maintained and doesn't have an official linux build. I've tried getting it to run with bottles, wine, proton etc. Are there any good character builders that natively support Linux?

Generally speaking, you're unlikely to find native builds of apps for any OS if it's easier to write a web app. This is one of those things that's easy to make for browsers and doesn't a localized program.
