The only adobe software I used was photo editing, so Lightroom and Photoshop. I have no idea what their other apps do, or how they compare to linux equivalents
Ah, no, I use darktable for all of my editing. But sorting my photos, rating, tagging and flagging them for future editing is all digikam.
Digikam is built from the ground up to be a photo cataloger. Hierarchical tags that you can click on to expand or contract, the ability to jump from a given photo to all photos taken on the same date, or all photos in the same folder, or all photos that share a particular tag. Collapsible folders and tag structures, the ability to toggle child tag/folder recursive view on or off, image grouping (automated by filename/timestamp/burst). They also share metadata perfectly well through EXIF data, so anything I do in one is visible in the other right away.
This is digikam

This is the same folder in darktable

My biggest issue with darktable was the masking. It's so different in darktable, but once I understood it, all the barriers fell away
I can't find something that has a decent workflow. I'm not looking for anything fancy
I import, sort and tag my photos with Digikam, and then open them with darktable for editing.
I was one of the former. Photography isn't my job, but it's really important to me, and photo editing was a show stopper for me for a long time. Even after I moved to Linux full time, I was using remote desktops, VMs and whatever else I could manage to get Adobe stuff working, without having to switch back to Windows. I endured, because I'd finally hit a threshold where that pain was worth putting up with in preference to Windows and its built in ads and spyware.
But when I finally gave up on getting Lightroom working on linux, I figured I had no choice but to learn a linux compatible workflow... It was either that, or go back to windows, and that wasn't happening...
In hindsight, I'm so glad I couldn't get them working on linux, because it forced me to get my head around Darktable. I couldn't go back to Lightroom now...
The only thing I would add to your post is that whilst gender is a performance, that's not all it is. It can also be, and very often is, an internal sense of identity distinct from the social manifestation of that identity.
They look like Royal Terns!
Your gender is how society perceives you. It is a spectrum between masculine and feminine
Not quite. It's got nothing to do with how people perceive you. A closeted trans woman is still a woman, even though she's perceived as a man.
It's also not inherently defined by femininity or masculinity. You can be a masculine woman or a feminine man, or you can simply not give a shit about masculinity or femininity (this is me). Society defines what we consider masculine and feminine, and creates powerful associations between these behaviours and gender, but the association is "after the fact"
Are you running it in docker, and have you allowed the container access to those folders? Is the disk formatted in a format that allows linux permissions?
It's up to you. Let me know
Ah yeah, I think I know what is causing that! We had a similar issue with Tesseract after we setup our new endpoints.
Kaity will have a poke around when she gets a chance!
