Like many others have suggested, you may want to try Bitwig. I understand that it’s the alternative DAW that is the most similar to Ableton. The company was started by a group of ex-Ableton employees, so it’s not a coincidence. Many people online feel that it’s in general a better DAW than Ableton, so you may end up liking it. It supports Linux natively, even provides an official flatpak (or Ubuntu installer?)

It’s not as expensive as some make it out to be, and it’s on sale right now for a few more days. I just yesterday bought Bitwig Studio Essentials. They have 3 editions and Studio Essentials is the starter version, currently $79 (reg. $99). The next level up is Studio Producer, currently $149 (reg. $199), and the top level is just Studio, currently $299 (reg. $399). They also offer rent to own for $16/month for 25 months on Splice.

You’re welcome! I’m glad you like it.

If you’re not already aware of it (I wasn’t until recently) there’s a search engine that “prioritizes non-corporate content”: https://marginalia-search.com/

I couldn’t find this particular article or blog there, I’m not sure why. Perhaps their robots.txt blocks it, which would be unfortunate. It turns up other similar content though.

I found this: https://www.linuxmo.com/wayland-vs-x11-the-battle-of-display-protocols/#penci-Security_and_Isolation

Wayland: Wayland’s architecture enhances security by isolating applications from each other. The compositor enforces stricter control over what an application can access, reducing the risk of unauthorized data access and improving overall system security.

I see, thanks for explaining!

Why not the Windows native version on the Windows machines?

BonziBuddy, lol

Cool to see a Linux smartphone, but holy moly, what a terrible name!
