So, I'm almost positive the newest versions of the adobe suite won't work. If you have older versions check out codeweavers crossover, that might be able to help you (though I have no idea if it can be installed on steamos).

i advice to ditch both in linux (you can still use photoshop in linux if you are patient to find a version that works, but its never a flawless experience). you will have more problems trying to force windows to work in the deck, and it will frequently be a bad experience.

very few effects in photoshop are unique or exclusive.
with gimp + plugins you can do almost everything and free; and if you need lightroom, there are also very good alternatives in linux to sort and do minor fixes to images. it also consumes little ram.

if you need, for whatever reason, to do a very special work with photo, use a "pro laptop" (with more than 16gb of ram) with the right programs: the deck may be useful for photo and basic video editing, but in digital art is common to work with multiple layers, and big canvases, which will tax your ram a lot.

in linux is better to replace premiere with davinci resolve:
you can try it for free with few limitations, and if you liked it, a permanent license for the program will cost you less than paying rent to adobe, and its able to also do special effects and color grading, all in one. theres also a free "libre" program called kdenlive that should work for most basic tasks.

Also, Lightworks is available for linux, which is a professional movie editor.

i tried it a long ago, and i think davinci is a lot better.

lwrks imo designed for a very specific workflow, with a very minimalist approach. that may be useful in very specific situations, but not for general use.

resolve is a bit like premiere fused with after effects, and may feel like a lot, but a basic tutorial to learn the most basic things to begin exploring everything later may take less than an hour to watch. working in davinci may be faster than premiere after learning that.

working in an office you may be stuck with premiere, but to do stuff on your own, is probably better to invest time in davinci.

forgot to mention this:
gimp includes many basic effects (ie types of "blur") that work the same as in photoshop, but it will lack the 3d stuff related ones, and i ignore if there are paid standalone progfgrams or plugins that could be called within the program to replace them. maybe blender could be used for some things.

in gimp is possible to use some photoshop plugins, usually only 32 bit versions. so you can hunt for free plugins for old versions of photoshop, and use them in gimp (you need to place them in a special folder-directory so the program can find them) to increase your options.

i have been fooling with gimp for a while, and the most annoying thing i found is how to work with layers: you cannot drag and sort them them around as easy as with photoshop.

but theres a "trick" to reduce that problem: you need to create "layer-folders" to group different layers in them. this will allow you to select and move all layers inside them, and place them between other layers, if you need that.

how do i get davinci to work on steam deck

I struggle to work with photoshop on anything less than a 19" PC monitor, so how on earth are you going to get any productivity out of a 7" screen?
