Honestly, you've kinda already found one of the best, here on Lemmy! Other than that, depending on which distro you choose, the Arch community can be a little terse, but definitely the most knowledgeable and more than willing to help if you do your research first. The Mint community is pretty nice, and patient since the distro is aimed at newbies. LinuxMusicians is a nice forum, and not so distro-specific, but I've noticed that they tend to get bogged down in the "why" and not the "how" on occasion. Really, other than Phoronix and the LKML, the Linux community in general is pretty cool, just a few loud voices give us a bad rap for being too insular, but that's changing pretty quickly.
Also, don't forget that in the event of a crash, those Bluetooth speakers would become Bluetooth missiles.
Anytime! One of the best things about Linux is that if you're having trouble, you can ask the community for help and more than likely, someone's gonna know something about it, so help is just a post away! Have fun, and good luck!
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the sound driver thing has been sorted since pipewire came out, it acts as a sort of bridge between the different sound servers. As far as your plugins, I found two posts from the old place about it: here and here, I wouldn't know specifically on those since I mostly use the open-source ones in the Arch repos. If neither of those help, you could try yabridge, which would be available from your distro's package manager.
As far as DAWs, I'm using Ardour, which is completely free, but there's also a couple of paid ones, REAPER, at $60 for individuals or $225 for a commercial license, and Bitwig, which costs between $100 and $400 depending on which license you buy. Personally, Ardour's been fine for me.
Low-latency can be achieved a few different ways, Ubuntu has a distro called Ubuntu Studio that uses their own tricks to make it happen, it also comes with a bunch of extra stuff for graphic design and video editing. Personally, I went with Arch, and followed the instructions on the Arch wiki, and I see latencies in the low single digits of milliseconds. There's also AV Linux and KX Studio , but I haven't used those, so I couldn't tell you much about them, other than that I hear good things about them.
That was a longer reply than I had intended, but if you make the switch, good luck and rock on!
I've been making an album on Linux, anything I can help with?
That'd be one hell of a punk rock album cover
It works until it doesn't

I'll be using it mostly for gaming, possibly self-hosting various things as I think about them. I'd like it to be mildly future-proof, but I'd also like to cut the price down a bit. Right now it's going to cost basically my whole tax refund, and if possible, I'd like to save some of it to further my education.
I'll be using Linux (don't know what distro yet, but that's another post for another /c/), hence the all-AMD build.
Thanks in advance!
If anyone could tell me how to change the system font color, I'd be much obliged. tips cowboy hat
Came up with this during the two days I mistakenly tried to start a new career.
For backstory: My partner and I have been playing Super Mario Party so long that it's gotten boring. They asked me what I wanted for my birthday (which is coming up), and I thought something like that would be cool. If X-COM 2 had a local co-op on the Switch, I'd do that, but is there something similar?
I can see saved posts all day, but saved comments, well that's an issue. It was easy on the previous iteration, just wondering why I can't find it now.
On Boost for Reddit, this was the feature I liked the most. Is it just not implemented yet?
