My main concern is reliability thanks to official support (or the lack of) and performance?I run all Melda plugins for years on Linux. I do not see the problem. Why would Vojtech spend time for prodicing Linux .so files ?
I saw videos of benchmarks where the plugin inside the bridge uses 4 x the CPU compared to running nativly on Linux.
As being financially dependent from my computer and the tools I use through them - I feel the need for native support from my tools. -> it would be a nightmare with a "five figure job" if suddenly your setup becomes unreliable -> even the fear from this is too much to bare. And i think native support has a much more reliable platform to build someting on than through some universal bridge.
What bridge/distro do you use?
How often do you have crashes with that bridge in use?
I know, whats the big deal you ask... --> I agree, I also installed Linux in a heartbeat on my private Laptop and seemingly all went very well - it is more than a pleasant experience -> Linux came a long way. I can only suggest people to use the new very stable and reliable Debian12.
BUT if you talk about professional use (which is ALWAYS intertwined with financial pressure) I become much more thoughtfull of my moves -> stability is ALL IMPORTANT. Therefore I take my time - a whole year- WITH an open end and the possbility to still stay with windows (at least on a partician inside my Linux machine)
Maybe the shift will take two years WHO knows... I only know it will happen and there is no turing back - every "ground" I a can conquer I won´t give back. I already made such a move/shift with Adobe->Affinity VERY succesfully years ago. At first I felt nudered with Affinity compared to Adobe BUT becoming an Affinity-ProUser (+ Affinity getting better and better) I EVEN prefer it now over Adobe. Thanks to my leap of faith I took I am now at a MUCH more pleasant place than before - much more independent and free -> and feedom is the best (self soothing) feeling there is.
