So I chose to install Ubuntu and Ubuntu studio on top (which as I understand is just adding a bunch of apps and maybe doing some configuring). I am a musician and visual creative. I’d like to know why I made the wrong choice in distro. Hit me with it!
Why is your distro of choice better than the one I picked at random for myself?
What bottleneck am I to expect due to my non archyness?
You made a great choice of distro for media creation.
Some background information and other options are below.
–//–
Ubuntu studio is a distro targeted at creatives(audio, visual).
Ubuntu is touted as a ‘high ease of use’ distro, but as a company, it is a user-data collector and advertising injector.
For a similar audio/visual targeted distro, but one that is free/libre and includes no spyware or tracking, you could try Dynebolic.
Can be booted as a LiveUSB (or LiveDVD) to test.
* NB. Any hardware connected to your PC, that needs proprietary drivers, will probably not work because those drivers are not included in any Libre Distros.
Also NB, Dynebolic is made by friendly, neighborhood, activist, Rastafarians.
Users data collection… Eeeew. That’s why I’m leaving windows. I’ll have a look at dynebolic thnx. My audio interface already doesn’t like Ubuntu so far so I’m gonna have to get techie with it anyway
