The inability to use Adobe Creative Cloud on Linux is often cited as a major barrier for many users considering a switch to the platform. But perhaps, just perhaps, there has already been a breakthrough in that direction.

A community developer says they have resolved long-standing Wine compatibility issues that prevented Adobe Creative Cloud installers from completing on Linux, publishing a patchset and prebuilt binaries that they claim enable installation of Photoshop 2021 and Photoshop 2025.

This would have been great like 10 years ago before Adobe fucked a decent product up with a subscription model and AI.

The good news is the old, non-subscription versions do work in Linux.

Honestly, unless you make a shitload of money off it, subscription Adobe products are just too rich for my blood.
