Looking for an affordable way to file a T2 led me to native Linux tax software for Canadians, "myTaxExpress". Are there others? (lemmy.ca)

Now that I have to file my T2 electronically I went looking for the most affordable way to do that and found T2Express. Not only was it the cheapest at ~$40 but it actually has had a native Linux version since 2020!

I wish I'd found this sooner because they also have a version for doing personal taxes called "myTaxExpress". The main reason I keep a Windows VM kicking around is to file our personal taxes every year with StudioTax and I'd way rather have something I could just run directly and not have to bother with that.

Their T2 software worked well enough for my purposes but a nil return is pretty straightforward. Anyone used their stuff to do their personal taxes and have an opinion on it? Are there any other options out there for Linux native software for filing a T1?

Thanks for chiming in because that's exactly my situation so reassuring to know it won't be a huge compromise. Where'd you run across it? I felt compelled to post because if it wasn't for the change in T2 requirement I probably would have gone another five years without realising there's a Linux option now.
