Sound on sound was always well worth a read. That said, I haven't read it in about 20 years and don't know if it's even still going.

Why is that called a dog whistle?

They can be dropped into local directories, assuming the devs provide binaries, otherwise they need building. I know it's not difficult to git clone and build but it's not really a beginner friendly process and not ideal to have to remember to check for updates (and not ideal to not have them packaged for updates if there are binaries provided by the devs). I was considering using 10 years ago or so and this was one of the main reasons I decided against it in the end (along with other audio tools not having packages), it's a shame it hasn't really moved forward in this respect because it looked really nice otherwise.

Those Tukan plugins are not VSTs, they are reaper specific plugins.

I have no idea about Bottles but most people use yabridge these days which is really easy to use and works very well.

Yes. LV2 and VST3

How long does it last, a couple of days?

I use obtainium for it and other Lemmy apps.

That's amazing, thanks for mentioning it.

Wait, infinity if coming to Lemmy?

What are the great android apps for photoprism? Last time I looked there were two unofficial ones which were both not great and neither allowed you to upload from.

Yeah I've given up on him to be honest. Kind of sad, we grew up together and he used to be quite alternative but has been sliding into someone I don't recognise. I can't comprehend it and most of the time I just let him expose what an idiot he's become. Just the other day he said "Trump wasn't that bad, he was the best of a bad bunch". I could hardly believe it... absolutely staggering. But yeah, like you said, it's a lost cause and he will only get worse and lost in his toxic Facebook groups.

Have you tried Overwitch for elektron? I use it for the digitakt and it works really well. I have never used actual overbridge though so I don't know how it compares.
