Professional, industry-standard applications running natively on any major distro.

I use Adobe and Ableton products every day. I simply cannot use Linux as my main OS until these products can run in a real Linux environment, no matter how much I want to.

Argue all you want about Linux alternatives being just as good. The point is, they’re simply not what what the majority of professionals use.

Some CalDav servers also do notes. As others have noted, Joplin has a self-hosted option. If you’re willing to go with a service, Obsidian is .md based and multiplatform.

I cannot recommend soma enough. They have a channel for everyone.

Not that it’s Linux fault, but access to and compatibility with popular creative tools like Ableton or Adobe products.

Sure, it’s feasible to use Wine to run these products, but not in any professionally usable manner.

Yes, I am aware there are Linux-friendly alternatives, but they lack the plugins, compatibility, features, and quality of their industry~standard counterparts.
