Also I was more ranting on the future of Linux (which I am worried about), Linux at one point was amazing and useful 100%. It's these modern design decisions like forced adoption of wayland and the pushing out of Russian, cis white men devs that I think is causing the OS to go backwards.

At least you have an opinion, much better than my frens stuck on 80's rock and roll that think EDM is a waste of time.

So the crux of the convo is desktop Linux and what are you accomplishing with it. So I'm coming more from a content creator perspective. Not gamer/webdev which is usually the haunting ground of Linux diehards. Remove wine and the web browser and what do you really have??

Honestly I have a 32-bit float wav of the render of my deleted project, I can just sample it and remix it in a new session and boom, got the release and I don't have to waste hours trying to get the synth patch just right and fx chain just right to recreate the sound.

This was a hard lesson learned about never deleting things out of anger and saving presets.

I think my best move aside from DAW and vst plugin choices will be the frens that have experience and me heeding their advice. The EDM world is big and scary sometimes because competition is super stiff and peoples tastes and trends are very mercurial.

If you can get Mixxx running you will be the goat 🐐

You could even do a classic rock mixxx.

At least the fedi is not a echo chamber and we have a diverse group of people. My main gripe is people hardly venture outside of anime cooming and politics. For a while there was a Warhammer 40k instance and that was a breathe of fresh air. I'd like to see a car racing instance, a hunting and fishing instance, a music producers instance, there is so much more to life than arguing politics or jerking it to 8000 year old lolis.

TL:DR I got sick of constantly sinking time into getting what should be normal standard things working properly. I want to have a life. I love old Linux for having basically solved that problem but I hate new wave Linux for trying to reintroduce it.

I think the breakdown in my frustration happened long ago when the Arch Linux install process began to become unrecognizable after a couple of years. Also at what point do people start putting a value on their free time vs "just trust me bro and follow this lengthy github guide to get your trivial feature working that was working out of the box years before".

I'm not denying that people can make content, art, music, etc with Linux. My problem with the Linux community at large is the constant reinventing of the wheel and the rampant activism which is making Linux go backwards to nerd goo code hell when it was on track to being something special.

And don't get me wrong, I like Linux, I use Linux daily, Linux literally handles my internet routing in my apartment. But I'm not gonna sugarcoat and lie about how out of touch the average desktop Linux user is about their software stack being an unstable niche thing that is at the whims of all sorts of unstable lunatics in the development world.

Without wine desktop Linux would be as relevant as FreeBSD.

Doesn't the fact that you have to do all this to have a normal, productive computing experience tell you that shit is really bad??

Why should the average person put up with that? It sounds like I need to do alchemical spells to get work done on a Linux system, it's infuriating..

Outside of the server space (no denying that Linux makes for great web servers) I'm not seeing anybody accomplish anything with desktop Linux. Most people that I know that main Linux only are in a constant spiral of customizing, reinstalling and fixing their setup while creating or producing nothing. I only know of 2 successful YouTube channels where the creator mains Linux and it's literally them turning on an expensive camera and talking which is not impressive.

A producer streamer that I follow summed it up the best, "people come to me and say look I got X, Y and Z working in Linux, yeah it took you a week and I got a track produced and 3 videos and a livestream finished in that time."

I'm actually someone who spent years and years dogfooding Linux and BSD. While the privacy and customization benefits are not deniable, you guys literally have stockholm syndrome. I don't mean to be rude but being Linux only in today's world is like riding a bike on the street with cars, they are just going to run you over while you are over here bragging about your carbon frame and squeaky horn.

Also elephant in the room. For the desktop most everything is just a bootloader for the web browser, lets be honest. You remove the web browser and wine what do you have outside of serving web content or math/science models? Maybe some AI and crypto stuff but that is not unique or better with Linux.

I guess Linux distros are doubling down on Wayland. RIP Linux 2024 you were something great and now you've downgraded to being a broken toy that devs don't want to touch with a ten foot pole. Great job nerds!

If anyone on the fedi is looking for a good dubsiren plugin, I highly recommend Dubber by ProtenzaDSP and or VirtuaDUB by Comet's Tail.
