Just run photoshop on linux.
I don't understand why nobody ever mentions that it just works.

Linux just needs more competition in the image manipulation space.
There isn't even a real photoshop competitor in the broader market, but you want to further split the hobbyist devs effort on linux as well?
I think instead it would be better to focus all the effort on a single solution that strives to cover all of photoshops features, with at least equal or better usability. Like has been done with Blender and godot for example. (And GIMP is sadly faaar from it still)
Affinity Photo
Can run on Linux via Bottles! I do not have much experience with it, but I got it running with this guide from 2022:
https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/166159-affinity-photo-running-on-linux-with-bottles/
if you agree with the opinion that's fine, but why would you admit to posting SEO spam? XD
This person still uses Google too haha.
You basically quoted thin air: "more features [...] for a wide range of advanced editing tasks". You probably know more than what's written there, but from my perspective I haven't learned one concrete feature that PS offers over Affinity. It's typical SEO spam, which rewards swaths of text with little to zero information density.
I use affinity photo and it’s an acceptable replacement.
Is there an equivalent for lightroom?
Darktable
Sorry not looking for a replacement, just how to run it :)
I am pretty sure it would run in the same wine setup, but nobody bothered to set it up as an install script yet, so you'd need to do some manual dirtywork.
Tried a few times to run it but with no avail, however il try to give this a go.
