Honestly there’s no reason to use Audacity anymore when this exists. We can argue all the livelong day about licenses and telemetry and “should we allow this” but there’s really no need when there’s a community-run alternative that lacks the motivation to implement such functions.
The “MuseHub 2.0” part worries me. Muse Hub is an incredibly useless and bloated launcher I didn’t ask for sneakily bundled with MuseScore that constantly attempts to run in the background as if it was malware.
I feel like we should be promoting the fork that was created during the drama some years ago, rather than audacity. They really have lost faith in the community and every time they are mentioned, basically there is no love.
I just can’t remember the name of the fork.
I also couldn’t remember. It’s probably Tenacity.
Tenacity looks great, and I didn’t even know about it! Thanks for the reminder, we should definitely be supporting the fork thats actually proper FOSS.
This version still got the data scraper in it?
The new UI and effects look stunning, but I’m concerned about the new corporate direction the project is taking
For those, like me who entered this chat wondering why the hostility? Here is a great write up of what happened in 2021.
