I am also a music producer and I would like to switch to Linux but feel like I would be giving up too much. Do you have any tools you would recommend to make it easier to switch and places I can do some reading you would be willing to share?
I really enjoy Linux Mint and it is what I have been using for a while. Maybe give that a try if you have not already? If you want something with more up to date features and packages, maybe try Fedora. I have not really used it personally, but I am thinking of giving it a spin on one of my machines and seeing if I like it.
I too do pro audio work. I don't like Windows and love Linux and have several laptops running Linux Mint, but I don't think Linux is quite where I want it to be for me to switch fully for audio work. So I consider using Windows just an occupational hazard of sorts for now.
Yes. I am liking the experience so far and it has gotten me interested in the rest of the fediverse. There are a few user experience kinks that I think need working out and a few bugs I have run into, but I think they will be fixed with time and they are not deal breakers for me.
I tried to get my friend group to move to Signal from FB messenger because I did not want that nasty shit on my phone anymore. They were not interested at all and acted like it was the most inconvenient thing in the world. I ended up uninstalling FB messenger anyway and only check it on my desktop and rarely respond now unless it is a one on one conversation or directed at me in a group chat. I told them if they want/need to get in touch with me right away to use old school SMS or actually call me.
I use a combo of streaming stuff I bought on Bandcamp with their app and playing local files. In addition to albums and EPs, I have bought a lot of singles on Bandcamp. I put all the singles in a giant constantly growing playlist on the Bandcamp app and then set it to random shuffle. It takes more effort than using something like Spotify, but I personally like it a lot more because it's only full of music I know I like and I feel satisfied because I supported the artists I like.
Ah, I see. Fair enough. I am glad that they exist too. It is pretty impressive imo. Since they did not have the source code and had to do some really fancy stuff to remake the game.
thanks for using Leebra!
