using VST plugins is not any different on Linux, but there are definitely not so many plugins available*. personally, I've tested with the IEM plugin suite (https://plugins.iem.at/), GVST plugins (https://www.gvst.co.uk/portpage.htm) and Dexed (https://github.com/asb2m10/dexed). Basically, any VST plugin built with the JUCE framework can be compiled for Linux.

*) although VST has always been cross-platform but historically it hasn't been used much on Linux, I guess mostly because of licensing issues (the VST2 SDK has a proprietary license) and, of course, lack of interest by the companies.
