So, anyone knows about a good Audacity alternative? It is not so bad yet of course, but I think I will rather be prepared :( Sad times indeed.
That is pretty likely if audacity keeps making terrible choices like this. I use audacity a lot and am hating to see the devs push for things so many people are against.
Yes, you are right. This is what comes to my mind. Let us see what the future brings.
I've read on the wiki about something called ardour or something, that's all I know of
Here, but it definitely has a steeper learning curve compared to Audacity
Ardour is said to be exceptionally good, at least from what I have heard. Thanks for pointing it out. Might be worth remembering it when the time comes. It is true that the learning curve is on another level entirely compared to Audacity, though.
Ardour is a DAW, kinda harder and imo overkill to use for simple tasks like cutting audio
falkTX from KXStudios is forking audacity and will be publishing a non-telemetry version somewhere in the future
