I'm only one person, but I use a few VSTs a lot, all commercial -- I couldn't easily have the proggy fun I want without them: M-Tron Pro, Virtual String Machine, Oddity, B4II, Elektrik Piano, things like that. Where possible I run them in standalone mode under Wine, where not (Oddity, I've never got the hang of the preset system so use VST host banks and patches) I run them in the cost-free Cantabile Lite VST host run using Wine. Naturally, I'm using Wine-asio for both scenarios. I've never had any problems running these plugins; obviously they crash on rare occasions, or get booted off Jack every now and again, but all the functionality er, functions. Since Wine-asio came along, I stopped bothering with DSSI-VST or FST.
