MODERATORS
Not to disparage your effort, but I looked into music and I only see:
Audio & Music
Audacity Audire Audile
Aaaand I'm out.
This is so lopsided it should be titled "A random collection of free software that has caught my eye"
I'm sorry you weren't satisfied with some of the software on my list. Audire and Audile are not options I preferred to add, but there are simply no better music recognition apps out there that I could find. I would love to know if you have any! As for Audacity, I'm not sure what concerns you have over that. If you have any constructive feedback, I'd love to hear it!
The project is still in its early stages, so not everything is perfect :)
Tenacity is a telemetry-free fork of Audacity for a start
How about Music players, Sequencers, studio, DJ, Drum machines, Guitar software amps, software radios...
The fact that you simply ignored music players disqualifies your list. Also considering that Arch's AUR, for example has over 90.000 packages, the idea of one person compiling a useful general "best of" list is deluded and doomed from the start.
I don't write this acrimoniously, I simply state the fact that unless you enlist help (and a lot at that) your endeavor is useless.
As I said, the list is still brand new. It doesn't have everything yet. The entire list should not be discounted because of this. If you have software you would like to see added, please post an issue on the repo with links and it likely will be added.
If you don't like my list, I encourage you to make your own. These are simply my opinions, which won't always be for everyone. Arch/AUR is not a be-all-end-all either.
It is fruitful to share my own list and experiences for those looking for it. Incompleteness is not useless.
