Late Stage Capitalism

LMMS was never mentioned to me by my producer homies on Linux; I'm actually amazed that one looks FL Studio adjacent and now I'm kinda side-eyeing my folks like 'the fuck, I know a couple of y'all run Mint in your downtime'; experimenting with that might actually give me a reason to stand up another Mint VM. Last I tried Ardour and Bitwig, though, they both felt somewhere between GarageBand and Ableton; and I just kinda bounced off 'em the same way I did Ableton.

It is heartening to see more VST support in the space though, that's one less thing to worry about when I finally do have good reason to permanently switch over. (I can't imagine losing my collection of plugins; like, it's been years. If I had to start over from pure square one collecting new plugins, it'd break me.)
