Project Darling Is Still Trying To Run macOS/OSX Software On Linux

[starshipeleven]

I like Linux, here everything is free.
I don't want a Mac, because there everything costs money.

To be honest, I rather see commercial proprietary Mac software not available on Linux, else it might poison the ecosystem and result in more and more software becoming proprietary.

Ever heard of piratebay?

I mean, If I got a dime for each Photoshop Master Collection CS6 I've seen installed in VERY suspicious places (it's sold at 2500$ or so)... I would be sitting on a shitload of dimes.

Hmm, this is the 3rd time Phoronix is writing about my project and also the 3rd time the article is based on incorrect, superficial information Michael picked up in 2 minutes' time. Really sad :-(

So, what exactly about the article is incorrect and what is the correct information?

Cheer up, you aren't being treated unfairly. This is default quality for most phoronix articles.

Well this is where you have false, for Linux to be a suitable desktop oriented system we need those proprietary products a lot.

Some of them have no real equivalent in the open source world or their file models are not compatible... so even if I do everything to avoid them personaly, actualy they should be good for Linux!

Ahhh... good ol' times But this time is over soon, now using Photoshop or any Adobe product requires a web install AND connection. Adobe wins.

What puzzles me is why no one seems interested in porting Google's Arc++, which is (mostly) open source, to run on traditional GNU/Linux distros, such as Arch, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc.

Have you tried ARC Welder?

The typical Linux user. Crying for software but not buying anything. That's why we see such pathetic Steam numbers. Personally I use it for freedom and not because it's free.

I rather not use pirated software, and I rather not use proprietary software that are closed source.

I don't need them. Linux is a suitable desktop-oriented system for me.
I use Linux everyday. Works great for me. I don't need any proprietary software.

Have you tried ARC Welder?

Yep. But it doesn't work very well and is no longer being developed. Also, ARC Welder requires support for Chrome packaged apps, which will be discontinued on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Probably the most promising option at the moment is Shashlik, but it is buggy and its development has slowed. Arc++ would be preferable.
