How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?

I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....

bdonvr,

Wine/Proton can run a huge amount of Windows programs.

Honestly though I’ve just been using Linux for 8 or so years now and just find some other solution. For general computing it really isn’t hard at all. Perhaps if you have some weird proprietary work software or absolutely need Adobe it could be an issue

bdonvr,

I think it would be pretty easy to qualitatively test this

bdonvr,

Just pop it out and wipe it off once in a while

bdonvr,

I appreciate that mental image but I must respectfully inform you that you need to wipe down the socket, not the ball.

Which is why us real trackball users get our tongues all up in there to clean it out.

bdonvr,

I bring my trackball to work everyday, seriously.

bdonvr,

I could leave it at work I just don’t want to buy another $100+ mouse, I use it at home

bdonvr,

Israel is just taking their land back

How on earth did you get to that conclusion
