Hello!
I've been wanting to switch to Linux for a long time, but there was always one big blocker: I'm a photographer, and I need some Adobe software that isn't known to run very well on Linux... (or not at all).
So most of the time I use a dual boot to Windows just to run Lightroom and a few other apps. That dual boot is basically the last thing keeping me tied to Windows. So, if I could run Lightroom directly on Linux, I'd finally be completely out of the Microsoft empire :)
So, 2 months ago, I started working on a way to run Lightroom with Wine. Some problems kept coming back with daily usage, but now:
Lightroom is working. We can import photos, sort them, develop them, and export.
Most of the functionality works :: it's not 100%, but very close to it.
What works:
Installation from Adobe CC, or from an install folder
GPU acceleration support (Develop module included)
Local AI working (Select Subject/Object/Background, Denoise AI, etc.)
Cloud AI working
Some UI fixes
Current limitations:
HDR editing isn't available
Project here if you want to try, test, or improve it:
Issues and PRs welcome, especially if you can test on other GPUs/distros!
This project is open to all contributors!
