I hope this means I can use paint.NET on wine, because that one single program is the reason I dual boot.

Paint.NET 3.5 works fine under Wine. Later versions will require better Direct2D implementation from Wine.

Consider using free software instead: https://lazpaint.github.io/

I don't use version 3.5, I use version 5.0.13. And it is so out of the league of lazPaint it's unreal.
