I also hope the "pro" audio side gets more love. I'm not an audio pro, but I do play music.

Long story short, I tried pipewire for a year, it was a wasted year. Realtime audio never worked, it was a mess of configurations that didn't fix anything. Went back to Jack, everything worked.

Was sad that I could have spent more time making music instead of messing with "the newest, greatest, and best" in the Linux world.

When you want to get something done, it rarely is a good idea to use the “newest, greatest, and best”. You really want “old, proven, and reliable.”

Now if only hiring managers would realize the same is true for SWE roles…..
