The problem is mostly that those niches count up, so that quite a lot of people fit in one of those niches.

I happen to fit in 3 niches at the same time: VR, Music and Professional design.

VR? No linux. Music production? Depending on your VSTs, No linux. Playing Music live? Depending on VSTs, No linux. Professional design? No Linux.

I currently actively trying to switch to Linux, despite its apparant shortcomings in above applications. It's quite the challenge. Wine seems to install quite some stuff, but from what I've read it's a crabshoot if stuff breaks after every update...
