Office on the Web can work for many people. I don’t know how many people actually use speciality softwares outside of Office, they must not be many. Games are pretty much click and play now, only some pesky anti-cheat that demands kernel access remains, but not every gamer plays those games.
Adobe suite is another big one. I know folks who have to use windows for Premier, Photoshop, illustrator ect. If Adobe ported their stuff to Linux, that would be a huge shift in the market
Let’s hope Adobe continues to extract ever more money out of its clients, so that the libre alternatives can get a chance for chipping it away at the edges, since there are many sectors where they are more in parity than libreoffice with microsoft office.
