I'm all for having more options. Though deep down I just want everyone to work on Ardour lol.

How do these browser based DAWs stay funded? Is there enough community money to keep these things up?

Ardour is a terrible DAW. I don't think these people make music.

That sounds great, but I was not able to find how a developer can meaningfully contribute to this project. But Readmeisounds promising.

There's a similar effort to have a figma alternative. It's called penpot. But when I tried to self-host it, first it's inconvenient, second it missed features, that was there in their official site. I wish it good luck, but Ardour is pretty good already.
