Audio is still a niche in Linux but one can already see the uprising commercial potential due recent years development of e.g., Pipewire, improvements in kernel and projects like yabridge, which is like "Proton for audio plugins".
It's also pretty nice to open audio projects in properly tuned Linux distribution thanks to overall feel of stability and steady response, and off-shelf routing network (thanks to pipewrite), even more so than e.g. in macOS. It's only the smaller plugin ecosystem that really counts.
And this all is fairly recent, happened only during last few years. E.g. in 2019 audio situation was still quite horrible :-) When you make a song, you don't want start your creative process by adjusting audio buffer sizes for fucking Jack init.
