As a C# developer on Linux, I wish this was more true than it is. Working on a multi project dotnet solution in VSCode is still far behind Visual Studio / Jetbrains Rider.
Its also worth pointing out that the more you add to VSCode, the slower it becomes. If you add the toolkits to make it compete with Jetbrains products, it isn’t nearly the same lightweight editor anymore.
Won’t speak to Webstorm, but hard disagree when it comes to Rider. VSCode/Zed really fit into an entirely different category from Jetbrains IDE’s. Lightweight editors vs full fat development environments. There are use cases for each.

The plugins would almost certainly work in a VM, but I imagine that latency would become a big headache. For my purposes, I picked up a Beelink mini pc and called it a day.
So in terms of DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), Linux already has Bitwig, Reaper, Arour, LMMS, and possibly others. Personally, I find the bigger issue comes from plugin developers (the DAW is your main program, and you add your sounds/effects through plugins). Most companies are not delivering anything Linux native. Many of these plugins can be bridged with compatibility software, and will work fine that way. However, most of these plugins now are also using their own install/activation software center, and they are often a nightmare in Linux.
Music production is the one thing I currently keep a windows mini PC around for these days. It’s not impossible to make the transition to Linux, but the last thing I want when pursuing a creative endeavor is technical software challenges holding me up.
It is and it isn’t. It’s super dependant on use case. They bill on operations, not bandwidth. Obviously if you are hosting video/audio to be streamed, that could mean massive savings.
Maui has zero Linux support. I don’t believe there are any plans for it, either.
However, Avalonia is fully supported, and is almost a drop in replacement for WPF.
We are all tired on this day.

The “down” was definitely edited after the fact.
Thanks! Not quite as wild as I was expecting (kind of surprised this was enough to push them to delete their account)
Do you have any sources for this?
Where can you find an N100 for $60 with 4GB of memory?
EDIT: Nvm, found the comment replying to this mentioning Radxa boards. Just found them the other day. Very interested.
Aren’t most CPU’s and chipsets proprietary? Not to mention all of the firmware blobs they require? What are some affordable, non-proprietary options?
Doesn’t Kate have its own theme options?
As a user of Debian and Arch: I don’t know how to feel
Thanks for the link! I was trying to figure out the Lunduke complaints (I don’t know if I’ve ever heard of this guy before). This video did a solid job of catching me up.
You didn’t mention rsync, which I think is usually considered standard. I’d look into that.
Reasons are usually just newest kernel/mesa/etc. Most of the time the difference is very small, and often inconsequential. However, every now and again there is a major development that might make it worth it (IE: The graphics pipeline that all but made dxvk-async obsolete)
