Never. F*ck Adobe

Damn, you beat me to it!

Yes, f*ck Adobe. But there's sadly no good alternative to InDesign yet...

Pretty much the only thing that keeps me using Windows over Linux as a daily driver.

Them put it on a VM on a Linux machine and never use it for anything else. Definitely never log in with any account over there.

Recommendations for a solid VM? Only one I have tried in the past is VMware.

Gnome Boxes was great for me some time ago.

You can also try KVM/Qemu VM

There is always VirtualBox is everything else fails :)

Gnome Boxes is just another front end to KVM. The minimalist front end to KVM is virsh (CLI).

VirtualBox works on hardware where the ISA does not support virtual machines (or where said, *cough* Intel, instructions are buggy and insecure). Instead of full emulation, it patches the ram of supported OSes to make system calls.

Xen also works on hardware with no ISA support for VMs. (It also supports ISA VM support.) There is a xen micro-kernel that does nothing but run VMs. Even IO is done by a privileged VM. The kernel in the VMs must have Xen device drivers - which today are merged with virtio device drivers (so the same drivers work for both Xen and KVM).

KVM/virt-manager works well

Same. Got Linux on another machine, it's way more fun.

What distro?
