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.

There is still an older version of Scrivener available for free, from when they were beta testing it on Linux. It still worked well last time I checked. The Windows version also runs really well in WIne, although it takes a bit of setting up initially.
Compatibility is apparently really good on Linux according to CrossOver reports only a month or two ago: https://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/crossover/scrivener
I have paid scrivener and it's a fantastic product for writing a story... or a DnD campaign even!
I haven't shopped around but I switched from word to onenote to scriv and stopped looking. This is from my experience on windows not linix.
Not sure how good the beta is. https://forum.literatureandlatte.com/t/linux-1-9-01-beta-released/31623
