Audacity is fine but its operations are destructive. I’ve been trying to learn Ardour, but it’s a completely different beast…
I don’t think OP’s link mentions it but iirc one of the major changes in Audacity 4.0 is supposed to be non-destructive editing. At least that’s what I think I remember hearing like a year or more ago.
It already supports realtime audio plugins now, which are non-destructive.
It adds two toolbar buttons, share audio and get plugins, which seem to be only usable with an audio.com account and are not removable. Bummer.
isn’t audacity spyware now? or did they stop that
they stopped that very soon after the controversy started
The fact that they even considered this, made me lose trust in them. Tenacity FTW.
Let’s say, they had the Audacity
Oh, that’s good to hear.
technically it was never shipped and only planned to be enabled in testing builds, and no code ever touched anything outside of audacity on the computer except maybe hardware and dependency details though i’d have to check again for those
Meh. Prefer Tenacity without the enshittification.
tenacity development looks somewhat moribund and lacks so many of audacity’s added features and fixes like pasting audio. tenacity’s release porting audacity’s added realtime effects, beats and measures view, and opus support has only been present in an alpha released eight months ago.
What’s enshitified about it?
They tried to add in opt out telemetry in. A few forks were created as a result.
Ooooh, exciting ☺️

Been looking forward to it. I know there’s been some buyout but I am feeling optimistic about its future after watching the video made by one of the guys working on it
