Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Im really very much just doing music production as a hobby, but even then ardour has some annoyances that make me look for an alternative

I've been using Ableton for 3 years and nobody has mentioned it yet. I got the 90 trial of the Suite edition and haven't looked back.

Ableton doesnt have a linux version right?

It does (Ableton's Push runs Live on Linux) but unfortunately it is not available to the public yet.

I would literally have no reason to stay on mac/windows if Ableton/max released Linux versions

Same, the entire reason I'm still using Windows is for Max
