Linux is very bad for music creation, the ecosystem is lacking the incredible tools like Ableton or FL studio, and the VSTs. You can’t shit done on Linux in this area right now, well I’ve made some music but what a pain it was.

So what you're saying is that it's possible but that the tools aren't great right now?

I love open-source, I’m an open-source contributor on a few projects and most of my projects (the good ones) are open-source too!

It sounds like you're in a position to make some headway on that.

try to make music with open-source tools and we can talk about it.

Some of them are good

So they're not all 'very bad' then?

I won’t involve myself into an open-source DAW because I’ve literally got other shit to do right now than filling issues or PRs that no one will read on GitHub.

Why do you assume that issues or PRs won't be read and actioned? That's not my experience working with open source?

Stop trying to convert everyone to your open-source utopia, it can’t exist

Bullshit (and beside the point).

The way you talk about things is not helpful, it is just the same copy-pasted shit every time. Open-source… bugs… developers… community… proprietary software bad…

Stop acting like a malfunctioning cyborg.

Make me.

Edit: I did ask for actual pain points and you didn't respond to that.

Edit2: a quick update from IRC neutroniak: lmms supports VSTs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
