Why is the lack of certain AAA games held more against Linux than macOS?
Linux has 1950+ games on GOG and 6500+ on Steam. Some of them AAA.
When it comes to file formats, I'm sure there are certain formats that poses a problem, but at least not the most commonly file formats exchanged. Like Microsoft Office formats; LibreOffice opens pptx, ppt, xls, xlsx, docx, doc, docm, etc.
Inkscape as mentioned above, opens Adobe illustrator files.
Both GIMP and Krita opens Photoshop files. Krita perhaps being the most appealing alternative to Photoshop users (UI-wise).
And normally, if you have clients, they don't arbitrarily send you arbitrary files in random formats. You have agreed on a workflow and file type.
