When you get deep into niche stuff like this, Linux is such a pain in the ass. I like it for casual use and even some gaming but I'm not going to lie, a lot of hobbyist stuff is just so much easier on Mac or Windows. Which makes sense since Linux isn't in widespread use by normies and also isn't a desktop-first OS.
