Linux • Graphics
My personal list of graphics applications made or ported to linux (Incomplete)
Academia & Skills
A list with 422 apps by AmileyaRyver without a description.
Freedom-Respecting Apps for Creatives
Like my previous list, this is to help people switch to Linux and Open Source. This time, the focus is on creative professionals and hobbyists: artists, musicians, writers, etc.
Not all apps and services listed will be open source or even free (as in free beer), but they will at the very least be either freedom-respecting or non-subscription-based. The simple rule is: once it requires an account (email, phone number, etc.) to use it, then it will be placed after the ones I actually recommend.
Of course, there will be a few exceptions, but these are ONLY to point out that even big, well-known software is available on Linux as well. These exceptions will be at the end of each section.
Each section lists my recommendations in order of best (in my opinion) to good enough. In most cases, proprietary and non-freedom-respecting app/services will be last in each category, except for Obsidian, which is proprietary but respects your freedom and privacy. If you don't like my choices, click on the app to search for alternatives right here on this website. Convenient.
Note: This list was originally started as an unfinished thread I was writing. A very long one that goes into more than just alternatives, but also why you should use them — like protecting democracy and freedom, how your tax dollars should be spent, how important open source is in our digital age, etc.
Here is that unfinished thread: https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/wip-how-to-tell-if-you-can-switch-to-linux-software-alternatives/58912#p-574301-creators-31
Lastly, the Linux operating systems (or distros) are at the end of the list because no matter which you choose, the majority of these apps can be installed on Windows, and can certainly be installed on any of the distros.

















Comments and Reviews
This is one of the greatest software for animation and game development
I don't see linux as one of the supported operating systems for this program, yes the 2016 version only supports centos 6.5 and redhat 6.5 WS so it may not work on other distros but still supports linux
There's a few great products available for someone that need to be added. a few are:
Verto Studio VR - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/verto-studio-vr/9p32wn9sxn7r
Actiongram Beta - https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-hololens/en-us/apps/actiongram
RoboRaid - https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-hololens/en-us/apps/RoboRaid
and I feel that there are more out there. It is different from the other VR sets, it doesn't forces on games but more on how to get i to the real world.
Autodesk Maya best software in the world, i know it not free but it's good program you have to try this now Autoesk maya changed and upgraded 2017
