The problem is bureaucratic: Using them with Wine is not the manufacturers intent, so it may break for a while and theres nothing the manufacturer will do to fix it. The companies of the users often don’t dare rely on this. It’s also why some companies require to use redhat or ubuntu for a distro, because they don’t dare running anything without a support contract. They think that way there’s someone external to blame, call for help or sue, if things break. I’m not a fan of this, but encountered it a few times on different jobs. At my current job one of our clients has this with redhat and tbh they actually had to call redhat support twice this year, because their server got messed up during upgrades.
Games. I have a Steam Deck so yea I get that Proton works really well now but it’s still not perfect. And also I write software for customers that use Windows so ¯\(ツ)/¯
So skip Windows. Why does anyone need it anymore?
Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects :/
All work via Wine. I use each of them. No issues.
Can Wine run 32bit Windows adobe software?
I haven’t tested those myself, but wine has excellent 32 bit compatibility in general. If it’s on the list at wine hq, then it probably works
Yes, if you’re on 32-bit hardware. It’s unlikely you are. Backwards compatible binary execution should be fine.
I have a 32 bit machine that is still in service for this task and some others, but I’d rather run it on a modern machine (m1 mac)
Have fun with that.
Big files? No issues? They have problems on Win, I can’t imagine on Wine (that I find fine for almost everything else)

Games aren’t an issue. If you are still in a world where your local machine is a dev environment, that’s a different story. Sorry.
