    It’s depressing to see. Unfortunately I’m heavily invested in music software which is not available on Linux. If Microsoft actually does this it could get to the point where even a switch to Apple seems better. But Linux is the only satisfactory and viable solution for actually having control of your machine.

      WINE and similar tools have gotten really good in the past few years. Valve’s Proton compatibility layer is good too, despite being designed for gaming many people are using it to run software which WINE itself struggles with.

      It could very well be possible to run your music software with minimal tinkering.
