To revisit this, I’ve been running Axe-Edit III on Fedora for about five years now, and it’s been working great overall. The only real issue I’ve encountered is a disappearing cursor bug, which makes editing tricky. There’s a discussion on the forums about patching it, and as of now, the patch is still required. I’ve already patched the necessary files and uploaded them to my GitHub, so you can just drag and drop them into the Wine Axe-Edit directory. Once patched, it works perfectly.
In terms of performance, Axe-Edit III runs flawlessly on Linux after the cursor fix. There are no other issues and itruns 1:1 with the Windows version, wait it actually runs better than the Windows version. Forgot about the weird font rendering bug I had a few months back when Microsoft switched aliasing on Windows 11 (to fix Edge/Chromium stuff from what I looked up at the time.) Even Fractal-Bot works for updates, and I’ve never had a problem updating my firmware on Linux.
Regarding official Linux support, I think it’s worth considering. Linux has seen significant growth in the consumer market thanks to devices like the Raspberry Pi, Steam Deck, and Intel NUCs. And since the software already works nearly perfectly on Linux with Wine, adding official support might not require much effort—possibly just a winewrapper.
TL;DR: Axe-Edit III already works great on Linux (Fedora) once you patch the cursor.
