I can’t speak for Lightroom but Photoshop works through wine and Davinci resolve and blender is native on Linux. Source: I’m an artist using krita and blender on Linux. Also I use darktable as a substitute for Lightroom.
Edit: specifically Photoshop 2018, but i use krita since i already use it for digital painting anyway.
Yeah as you can maybe tell from the list, I’ve already been trying hard to go to alternative/open source replacements to most of Adobe’s lineup but PS+LR is the engine behind the day to day work and I couldn’t find something to truly replace it just yet. The new AI stuff they’re bringing into PS isn’t going to make it any easier to ditch lest you’ll be left behind the competition…
I’ll look at darktable, does it integrate well with PS? I need it to merge to HDR, and open as layers into PS.

Yeah makes sense, in that case you’re better off sticking to windows since Adobe doesn’t officially support Linux.

I have no idea what any of that means since I’m not that well versed in professional photo editing, but it is a raw/HDR photo processing thingy, adds effects non-destructively, as for integration with PS, you’re gonna have to try and find out. It works out for my workflow, e.i. just dragging and dropping images.
Yeah I have a workflow that goes back and forth a lot between LR and PS, which includes opening multiple photos as a stack in PS. Also the way it works with file management where I can just save in PS and generate a new TIF with everything that’s in the LR catalog right away.
It’s something I have to do thousands of times a month and that process is quite dialed in, any changes that add time is multiplied like crazy so even like 1min extra per shot is not an option.
