Linux is great for the average person when they don't know they're using it. Unfortunately, we live in a windows world.
I tried running mobi creator on macos and crossover which uses wine, but it didnīt work. I havenīt tried it on linux though.

I believe there will come a change where all software will be available on multiple platforms. Java applications for example can be run on multiple platforms.

Unfortunately, businesses and developers these days doesnīt think that way. Windows have ruled the world for 20 - 30 years, but that is slowly changing now.
