    I use wine most of the time. In extreme cases qemu will do it.

        I haven’t tried Photoshop, but all the Windows apps I’ve used in Linux (mostly games) run seamlessly. Probably you can find a YouTube tutorial for configuring wine for your needs

        Wine will not run Photoshop because of the DRM. More than fifteen years ago, you could run Photoshop in Wine, but Adobe’s DRM is probably what killed it. You might be able to get Affinity Photo running in Wine with some manual tweaks, though. I haven’t personally tried in over a year, but there are people on the Affinity forums who have been able to get it working.

        Photoshop would probably work alright in a VM, though. GNOME Boxes is a good zero-configuration Virtual Machine manager.
