The only issue I have with Ardour is that all plugins need to be installed separately (assuming OP hasn’t installed them already).

I recently purchased a copy of Ardour, and I have noticed that, but I have found most basic plugins can be found for free.

nothing wrong with more options :)

Options are key.

I don't believe LMMS can do audio tracks, so Ardour would be the one to go with.

It could also be similar to the timelines, where there is a menu to either show everything or filter to one of the other options there currently.

I am planning on writing a graphical interface for gphoto2 (a Linux camera remote library) which will allow for tethered shooting and some other neat things (like using a computer as an intervalometer). I might also write a web interface for it, so it will allow for using a table or phone to remote control a camera and allow the user to check on timelapses, but it will take a while to get it all to work.

I have been experimenting with using Inkscape and OpenSCAD for 3d modeling, and it seems to work for what I do, but I know quite a few people prefer a more graphical interface than OpenSCAD.

Wine can be difficult to get working right (I have tried to use Wine for a few things before and I also had issues with it that I couldn't solve), so it doesn't surprise me that it doesn't work right for you. It is a miracle that they can get any apps to run on a completely different operating system, and audio software tends to be very complicated and often depends on system APIs.

It looks like at least FL Studio can work with Wine, but you have to use ASIO for audio.

I think music production software uses some system APIs that might not even be possible to replicate with Wine or Proton.

Great video! I'll pin this to the community so people can find this easier.

For some reason CPU was randomly spiking at 100%

That would explain the issues!

I just finished upgrading to the latest release (0.18.3), which has a lot of performance improvements.

I figured Lemmy would improve performance over time, so I was wondering how much it would help to update.

(0.18.2 also added some CORS stuff which makes third party web apps work better, so I was eagerly awaiting this update similarly to 0.18)

I have known about PWAs for a while, and it always has annoyed me just how many apps I have that could be PWAs instead. I think apps can be tracked to a greater degree than websites, so, at least for closed-source stuff made by companies, native apps give more data they can use and sell.

If you start to type @username@server in the default Lemmy web app it will give a list of users that roughly match what you typed, and if you choose one it will just add a link, so I think that that is actually the correct way to do it.
