    I am wondering how many people give up because their exact program isn’t on there.

    I get having to use Adobe software if you are an industry professional, but I’m not talking about that. I’m talking about people who don’t want to change because qbittorrent is not the same as utorrent. Or peazip is different than 7zip.

      Both qbittorrent and 7zip are FOSS projects that are perfectly available on Linux. There’s actually very few software packages that aren’t also on Linux, but they have a strong pull. Like AutoCad, Photoshop, video editors, DAWs, etc. Is specialized niche software, not everyday software that usually stop people. Also, they are unfamiliar with a workflow to do certain things on Linux’s DEs.
