Are there plans to release a desktop TurboTax for Linux, in particular Ubuntu, for the 2024 tax year?

For years I kept Windows on an old laptop for the sole purpose of running TT. I have repurposed that laptop to run Ubuntu, as I did with my other former macOS computer. It seems like a relatively small investment by Intuit to capture the Linux users market.

"small investment"

 

Windows programs don't run on Linux.

probably a relatively large investment considering the % of desktop PCs that use any version of Linux.

Not only are there the costs of writing the program code but then also the costs of the support staff that would be needed.  Intuit doesn't even produce a desktop version of Turbotax Business for MAC - currently only a Windows version
