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.

Darling is a translation layer that lets you run macOS software on Linux, not an emulator, it's like wine but for MacOS apps.

I'm a Windows user so this is even less relevant to me, but I can't think of a single program or application I would even want that's only on Mac.

The only one of those I've ever heard of is Final Cut and I have Premier Pro already. I'm going to assume I can get a pretty solid alternative for any of the rest as well.

I use Kdenlive for video editing. It's been awesome for my purposes.

For me that could be Sketch :)

Not familiar, but I have the Adobe suite and that seems to cover my needs.

Garageband. Sadly it's my favorite DAW. I've tried many alternatives.
