As I said in my post, 80% of the big VFX studios like DD, Weta, SPI, ILM, Dreamworks, DNeg, Framestore, MPC, FuelFX, RSP are using Linux for everything. Not just renderfarms - everything - creating the original content, modelling, texturing, lookdev, etc, etc.

So I don't know where you're getting the "Also Linux tends to be used almost purely for the processing side" from.

Everything you've said is true, but it's a relatively small industry, very custom (where linux shines), and little overlap with others.
