This is a limitation of our engineering bandwidth. Our Linux product is currently focused on big budget post facilities which often use Linux. There is no need to frame it as a slight, thanks.
That would be great! I meant it as less of a slight and more of a reflection of disappointment after seeing Linux headlined in the title, only to see a tiny footnote exclude it for many cases.

What's the value prop for a studio to run something on Linux vs Mac / Windows?
This is interesting to me to hear as the trope for Linux is that it's not used for audio/video work (and couldn't find much online about real world professional usage without pulling up reviews of best video editor / etc sort of results).
Also, congratulations on the release - rewrites are a huge undertaking.
I think the parent's point is still valid, though? It's unfortunate to assume that use of Linux implies big budget. Of course we know it has a lot of hobbyists too.
Just to counter this, I read the conversation and saw nothing dickish. It's easy to see why they might want to treat Linux differently, given the different audience it entails.
