Yeah, I’m not an expert, or even a noob on sound, my brother in law is a sound engineer (old school) and he says Logic Pro is great, basically flawless, but that it is more for large volume production because it allows you to just take care of some stuff and the DAW will handle everything else. You’ll understand that I didn’t ask what he meant by “stuff” as it would have gone way over my head.

At the end of the day, there’s 2 ways to have Linux reach mainstream, either the developers start developing for Linux (unlikely with most software providers as they don’t see the potential profit in such a small part of users) or we keep getting translation layers like Proton and such (which is, in my opinion, way better than was expected by most, and only getting much better). I would also assume that a translation layer for Mac software would be way easier to jump into because Unix. But it stands to reason that these are more focused towards Windows software for the exact same reason mentioned above for the Windows software developers, as the ratio is about 7:1 windows vs Mac.

It’s convoluted, for sure, but Linux has really been established in the last 5 years, and while I don’t believe there will ever be a ‘year of the Linux desktop’, the growth will continue, specially with Microsoft’assistance making windows such a disgusting flop.
