This might just be the push I need to switch to Linux desktop.

Do it. With proton the last argument for me to use windows is gone (gaming).

Can you run Adobe software via proton? As soon as that works I'll be on Linux.

Look at your usecase, if it really requires adobe suite, you are out of luck i'm afraid. Perhaps you could research running a VM or wine, but I havent tried any of that myself.

If you conclude that you dont need features exclusive to adobe you might be able to find a foss alternative.

Perhaps you could research running a VM

It works very well, especially if you pass through your GPU and storage. I can even use this setup for Gaming, no significant performance loss compared to Windows. It's awesome.

I need Lightroom and I've tried Darktable but it just doesn't cut it.
