The sad reality of audio software has been that usually the paid commercial software is better and more reliable. I’ve used Audacity alot for work, and it gets it the job done, but tools like iZotope RX are light years beyond in features and UI/UX.

This graphic is missing Bitwig in the AU section. Definitely worth mentioning since it runs on Linux/OS X/Win.

I just made the switch from a 3080 ti to a 7900 xtx and definitely agree, the difference is huge, but I wonder how much of that is the 2 generation upgrade leap or AMD vs Nvidia.

I run a dual boot system with no issues at all. Just need a second drive for Linux and let GRUB chain load the Windows disk.

I’ve been working on getting set up for music production on Linux, it is possible, but it has a lot more challenges. Manjaro Linux running the 6.13 RT kernel has worked well for stability with Bitwig Studio and Ardour, but the amount if plugins that are impossible or very difficult to install makes it feel limited.

I wish I could use Linux for everything, but there are still things you need Windows to run. It would be amazing to be able to run Nuke, Houdini, Ableton Live and the Native Instruments manager on Linux, but it’s not remotely possible now.

I went to Manjaro (Arch) with KDE from Mint about 5 months ago, and it’s been nearly flawless, allowed me to easily install a real time processing kernel for audio production, and it’s run every game I’ve thrown at it performs better than Winblows.

Manjaro with KDE Plasma has been working pretty flawlessly with an nvidia card for me.

Nebula doesn’t have that kind of ‘popular’ YouTubers, it’s a creator-made platform that’s more focused on science and documentary channels. I don’t think I’ve seen anything on Nebula even remotely related to gaming.

Yes, they are different countries, and they will continue to be the countries that make the tech products you buy at an inflated, tariffed rate.

Your phone was made in China. Most of the components were manufactured in Taiwan. Same goes for every chip in your car, and very likely for your Japanese microwave too.

None of those chips for your computer, your phone, or your car were made in the US, and thanks to Lil Donnie’s tantrum against the CHIPS act, none of them ever will be.

Yes, all these companies are using the same breakthrough in memory manufacturing to build similar products out of the same base memory modules. And none of the memory modules they’re using were made in the US (ooh scaaary).

I know reading is really hard for you, but if you do, you’d learn that this is just another company doing the same thing that the big names like Samsung and Sandisk have already done.

I’ve been running Manjaro for the last 4 months and it’s been incredibly reliable and smooth. I haven’t done any serious tweaking beyond installing a realtime audio kernal. I run updates every few days and I haven’t had a single issue so far.

Edit: what’s up with the down voting? If there’s something incorrect with recommending Manjaro in this context, I’d love to know why, since I’m still relatively new to Linux.

I keep running into the same exact thing.

True, but you can go first person for ADS.

Helldivers 2 is fantastic fun and I still play it weekly, even though I’m max level with everything unlocked.

That is the definition of false equilavance.

I’m so glad you came to the rescue of all those poor dedicated MH fans by taking the time to pick on one fan who bought a game. Mission accomplished, Capcom has been told and will now change their ways.
