WINE doesn’t work well with DAWs.

Most DAWs barely work on the platforms they support.

I can’t see Linux as being a viable market since most Linux users except software to generally be free.

Vs OSX which lets you enter a credit card number and buy stuff right from the built in store.

If I recall Ubuntu might of once attempted paid applications on its built in store and it didn’t really work.

Logic is probably made at below cost, but it keeps you in the OSX ecosystem.

Need a 32GB OSX box with a 2TB drive, only one place to get it.

Bitwig natively supports Linux. I bought a license a while ago and while the cost is steep, I don't regret it at all.

The downsides are going to be the bland cross-platform UI and the general lack of plugin support on Linux. But the upside is native PipeWire support for application-specific channel audio and complex output routing options. The pack-in plugins are pretty good too, The Grid can replace a lot of your subtractive synths: https://www.bitwig.com/the-grid/

+1 for Bitwig - written by a bunch of former Ableton devs and its external plugin/module sandbox means that a badly behaving VST won't take down the entire DAW.
