Amazing & very user friendly!

A Great Tool for Anyone to Run Windows Software on GNU/Linux!

→ Very User Friendly. → Suitable for Regular Users and Professionals alike. → Powerful Tools like Eagle to Know what an Application Needs! → UI is Easy to Use and Understand (great UX). → Actively Developed and Maintained ~ works Great!

Rule of Thumb Reminder: Don't touch Things while they're working! You might mess something up. (If you accidentally started something ~ better not interrupt unless you have no other Option (running out of Storage, etc).)

Bottles is a Native Gtk Application following GNOME Human Interface Guidelines (afaict) https://developer.gnome.org/hig/index.html

Flatpak only means I will not use this application.

Edit*: there is an unsupported version on AUR. Raised the rating but left it at three for this development practice.

Bottles makes it easy to set up wine prefixes.

Since discovering Bottles, every installation of any Windows-based application is smooth and hassle-free. Just create an bottle that suites your needs (generally, the Gaming bottle suffices in most cases), click Run Executable (.exe) and an (near) native installation will commence.

In cl i ckbait terms; ONE app I knew when I was starting moving to Linux (from Windows). Give this 'Italian' app a go, it will be an default app in any of my Linux installations. He (Mirko Brombin) also made VanillaOS and Atoms (which I haven't tried)

The linux setup for everyone (freeware with GUI only and distro recommendations)

THIS LIST HAS BEEN DELETED DUE TO A BUG, SO IT MISSES SOME HONORABLE MENTIONS ! I've been using Linux for a year now. I do use CLI tool and the terminal but I'm super used to GUI and I do understand why you might don't want to bother with Terminal and stuff ! Here is my list of useful tools for beginners on Linux ! The same list for macOS : Windows 10 :

Dotfiles, or my favorite tools

Hi there, I'm here, after some time; and there are few of my fav. tools. Sometimes I will mention few apps outside of the listing of Alternativeto, because there's a blooming tool paradise out on Github, Gitlab, Codeberg, etc... Also, there are a few clipboard apps I enjoyed, like Clippy - written in language:vala. Now, let's go for the tool tour!
