Wait. Google Earth has always been available for Linux? https://www.google.com/earth/versions/

They probably mean the old desktop one that has been re-branded to "Google Earth Pro". The UI looks a decade old but it's still useful for doing more advanced things like taking measurements.

Yup. That's the one. If it works for you, great, but it crashes on symbol issues for many people.

FWIW, I use Google Earth Pro on Fedora quite often, and I'm deeply appreciative of the work it took to make that such a simple and enjoyable experience.

I hate that the vocal and tiny minority of linux users who are never satisfied are the ones that most people hear from.
