For those who are wondering, yes, Wine is malware compatible so be careful about the EXEs you run!

Sadly "Wine is not a container" doesn't make for a good acronym.

I haven't run a Linux machine in years. Has wine improved or was I just not savvy enough to get things to run on it?

It's gotten significantly better since ~2010 or so when I was first struggling with it. Valve developing Proton on top of it definitely didn't hurt even if that in particular is more games focused.

Wine has gotten pretty good, but mostly for games rather than traditional applications.
