I’m wanting to move my main machine over to Linux, but I’ve heard mixed things about Orca Slicer working with Linux. Can anyone give any advice on either having it work or a Linux alternative with similar functionality?

Orca as a flatpak/AppImage works without any issues here.(Debian 13, Fedora 43) There is also a LinuxServer.io version which I tend to run on my server and simply use a browser.
Basically while I have Orca on my Fedora 43 Desktop and a Debian 13 test machine I got tired of synching the filament profiles and somestimes projects between all family devices (5 Notebooks, 3 Desktops). Therefore we simply have a docker container with the Linuxserver.io Orca. That can be accessed from every device and simply loads models from a NFS share. So filament and process data is unified at this single point.
Additionally it provides an added layer of security as my printers live in their own, fully offline, subnet and only this container,Spoolman/Spoolease and Home Assistant can access it. (Thank you Bambu rolleyes)
