I was doing computer science and we were asked or recommended to use the following pieces of software:

• Citrix Workspace App, which has a native Linux version.
• Docker, which has a native Linux version.
• Google Chrome, which has a native Linux version, but I chose to use Firefox anyway.
• Laragon, which doesn’t have a Linux version, so I just used XAMPP instead.
• Microsoft Excel, which doesn’t have a Linux version. The school offered an Office 365 license, so I could’ve used the web version, but I chose to use LibreOffice Calc instead.
• MySQL Workbench, which has a native Linux version.
• Open ModelSphere, which has a native Linux version.
• Packet Tracer, which has a native Linux version.
• Slack, which has a native Linux version.
• VirtualBox, which has a native Linux version.

Didn’t really have any problems using Linux. Might be different if you need other software, tho.
