So I have a situation. I really want to switch to Linux as my main gaming/production OS but need the Adobe suite as I am a graphic designer. Adobe is the golden standard for this industry (and likely to always be) so while Gimp and Inkscape might work, they are not feasible for my career. I also know that there will be situations where games just don’t run well or at all on Linux.
Dualbooting works but is not really worth it for me as I would have to stop what I’m doing and restart my PC. I heard that you can set up a single GPU passthrough for games and software but it seems complicated. How difficult would that be to set up for a new user to Linux? I would consider myself a tech savvy person but I know very little about the ins and outs of Linux. I have a massive GPU (XFX RX 6900 XT) with a big support bracket that covers the second PCIE slot so buying another GPU isn’t really feasible either.
I do have an Unraid server with decent specs that I use for a hosting Minecraft servers and Jellyfin so setting up a VM on that might be a good option.
What would you guys recommend me to do?
The problem is, sometimes while you might be open to using certain software, the people you need to work with and collaborate make that hard. For instance, Early 2000’s, I was tasked with making some weekly magazines. I used Scribus. The people at the printer, of which I had no control over unless I wanted to foot the bill, made life pretty damn miserable because I wasn’t using whatever adobe product they were used to. Things worked, but it was a time that I would much rather leave in the past as I can’t describe the frustration caused.
