Pathfinder's compatibility is based on 3.5e, so DnD 3.5e homebrew stuff is likely to work with Pathfinder. 5e stuff probably will not.
Old Windows games are more likely to run successfully on Linux than Windows.
New Windows games supposedly run faster in modern Linux than modern Windows. I can't verify it, lacking a modern Windows installation, but tomshardware.com said it was true.
That only goes for Pathfinder 1. To be fair that still gets played a lot but imo Pathfinder 2 is the best TTRPG created yet.
I would love to try Pathfinder 2e. I bought the core rulebook a while back during the OGL debacle.
Unfortunately, my player group is quite bad at remembering their own abilities, which is just a complete no-go for an ability-heavy system like PF2e.
I'm now trying out Savage Pathfinder instead.
Most things in Pathfinder are more intuitive though, so it could be easier for them. D&D5e is full of contradictions and stipulations that you are forced to remember. P2e is, in comparison, fairly easy to remember how everything works. There may be more things to remember, but those things are simpler so it could end up being less in total.
