So in terms of DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), Linux already has Bitwig, Reaper, Arour, LMMS, and possibly others. Personally, I find the bigger issue comes from plugin developers (the DAW is your main program, and you add your sounds/effects through plugins). Most companies are not delivering anything Linux native. Many of these plugins can be bridged with compatibility software, and will work fine that way. However, most of these plugins now are also using their own install/activation software center, and they are often a nightmare in Linux.

Music production is the one thing I currently keep a windows mini PC around for these days. It's not impossible to make the transition to Linux, but the last thing I want when pursuing a creative endeavor is technical software challenges holding me up.

I agree, but you could have posted the link with your comment, no?

The OP ruled out zig and rust already

What is PortProton doing that could increase performance? At the end of the day, won't this tool just set up a wineprefix for your game and then launch it using wine/proton, just like other tools of this nature?

...okay, but how is Quest 3 usage not the same as Index usage? I'm not sure the comparison really makes sense.

Avalonia and Uno Platform if you are working with C#

Not particularly interested in Studio One, but I really hope this trend of production companies supporting Linux continues. Would love for NI to follow suit one day (at least with Native Access)

Tiny correction: Fedora uses DNF now, not yum (possibly RHEL too, but I have no experience there)

I... Don't get the joke. Deluge is solid and on the list.

I was mostly just poking fun. Right now my media is only consumed at one location, so I primarily use Kodi on an Asus mini PC. I will likely keep Kodi as a client, and move to Jellyfin as a server in the future to allow for more clients.

EDIT: I understand downvoting my original tongue in cheek comment. Downvoting my response to someone's follow up question is pretty odd though. Especially the guy signing in with multiple accounts to do so 🤨

Lol using closed source apps with paid tiers hiding important features for media 🤣

Interesting indeed. I spent some time combing through the DB and pictrs folder to try to figure it out, but I'm at a loss so far.
