For content creation, Linux is lost. No 10bit support, lack of professional tools like those from Adobe and overall philosophy "from nerds to nerds" is usually time consuming for regular users.

Linux obviously isn't lost, given that I and many others use Linux for content creation.
It would help the discussion if people stopped talking in hyperbolic all-or-nothing extremes.
Like I said, this is a meme that needs to die.
What kind of content creation are you make? Where are those many? I would really like to know.

What does that mean?

Probably 10-bit color. Important for photographers, since modern cameras have 10-bit color sensors. GIMP only supports the sRGB color space with 8-bit color, so it doesn't work properly with wide-gamut monitors.
More like 14-bit, but same issue.
Even 16bit.
Sometimes it is called HDR. 10bit is crucial for colour grading. Photography, cinematography, design...
10 bit per color channel instead of 8.

Yeah, should've been more specific. I know what 10-bit means, was asking for the "no support" bit.
