  • I dont think Photoshop and Roblox work on Linux at all (Roblox does through Sober right now but probably not for long). Buying another computer will not change that (and iirc mac os also supports dual boot).

    However if you buy/build a good enough pc, you can run windows in a vm and use roblox/ps without dual booting.

    If you dont strictly need a laptop, then yes I would recommend you build your own desktop pc. But if you do, AFAIK xps and thinkpad line of laptops have pretty good quality. The higher end surface laptops are also good (but very expensive). I cant really recommend much else without knowing what features you expect.















  • One way is to donate to devs who are working on some specific features in the Linux kernel. The two I remember are Hector Martin who lead the Asahi Linux project and Kent Overstreet who is the main dev behind bcachefs, a new CoW FS.

    But I guess this only works if there is some dev already working on a feature and is accepting donations. I wish we had community linux project or something similar which was funded by donations and hired kernel devs to work on things the community voted on.
