I can’t speak for other programs, but for example, Photoshop runs under wine mostly. The issue is certain features like the content aware tool are locked behind the stupid Adobe Creative Cloud BS and is reported to have issues depending on which version you’re using and what tools you care about. IIRC, it’s mostly the newer AI tools that are affected so maybe linux users won’t care as much, but its still a downside worth noting nonetheless.

Most of the time when Adobe products are mentioned in this context, people will instead offer alternatives rather than telling you to run it under wine. It really depends on what programs professionals are using at their jobs though, and I imagine most will just use Windows on a separate work computer and not deal with the random issues with compatibility and troubleshooting. I think most wouldn’t want to risk losing important work related projects either. If its something more simple like Microsoft Word then you could probably get away with using it on linux though.

Isn’t the whole point of the verification checkmark is to make sure nobody impersonate well known people/organizations? I know Twitter eventually turned it into a whole cash grab subscription and ruined the concept, but on most other platforms it isn’t treated like some premium subscription and is just a means of knowing who is who.

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed!

Yep, that’s what I did too. A few years ago I bought my phone straight from the manufacturers website already unlocked. Tmobile is ripping me off big time now, so I’m looking into prepaid options right now. I’m kinda unsure how the process will go, do you happen to know if I could keep my old T-mobile number when switching to these prepaid options? Because that’s is the only thing that makes me feel stuck with Tmobile. It is an absolute pain in the ass switching over all your online accounts that are tied to your old phone number. They treat that like it’s your social security number lol

Would I be able to keep my old phone number if I switch to them?

Oh, good timing. I am trying to switch phone service and bring my unlocked phone to a new carrier, thanks for the heads up! I’ll be sure to add Verizon to my shit list.
