You can totally get it working in wine. Keep trying man don't give up. You're not gonna learn anything this way. I think it's well rated in wine website.. it should work

Bagul11988y@codeBoy I don't have the time to learn Gimp or Inkspace right now. Maybe after I get fired some day hahaha.

Bagul11988y@YousifMansour Yeah, will be trying again. Got some time free so I can finally get around to working with Wine. Thanks though!
-
Bagul11988y@heyheni Oh, hey. Thanks! That sounds super neat though being a broke-ass sucky developer / designer, I'd be even more broke using it lol But I'll still give the trial a shot. Thanks.

@theOverseer well I'm not an Apple fanboy or anything, I don't really connect with them if you know what I mean but if you want a UNIX based OS AND Adobe tools then there is no other option :P

Bagul11988y@liammartens Hahaha, I was kidding. If I had enough money for it, trust me, I would've bought one ages ago. ;)

hexc11268yAs someone who enjoys gaming in my free time and needs Photoshop, etc while developing from time to time, it's pretty much impossible to escape Windows. I don't want to have to manage multiple OS installs and switch each time I want to do something else. I wish there was a seamless way to use window x86/64 executables on Linux. (Wine is shit for GPU accelerated things)

@heyheni bash on Windows? Did you mean WSL? At the time I wrote this, WSL is just piece of shit. If you have good enough hardware and you need native Linux performance, you'll find better go with vagrant or docker.
Babun is based on cygwin and you can run pretty much UNIX command under native windows executable and it has a ton of tools to make you ready to be productive compared to cygwin. -
I totally had the same issue, for awhile was using dual boot. The idea of using Windows as my dev os horrified me, but when I actually tried to make it work, it's not that bad. All it takes is to 'vagrant up', 'vagrant ssh' and boom all my project linux env is at my disposal. And yeah, alas but bash for windows can't run server (yet)
