Software alternatives on Linux to Windows applications

Aplication English Software alternatives on Linux to Windows applications

When migrating to Linux from Windows, a common question is, where can I get a Linux application that is similar to the XYZ program on Windows? Below are programs that could be considered roughly equivalent to some popular Windows applications. . Note that Linux programs may not have all the features that can be found in proprietary Windows software. These alternatives are more reliable, less buggy, more secure, easier to upgrade, easy to install, with a larger community and do not crash like their alternatives for windows.
