From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Help me decide my first distro for Audio. (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone, I need help choosing my first distro. I want to be able to run Audio software for editing and mixing. So I need also VST plug ins and others. Currently I use Windows 10, and Reaper.

I have worked with macOS and Chrome OS in the past so the desktop and Linux is not something I can't get used to.

I also need to run Plex and Torrenting software.

I'm a computing engineer, so I can troubleshoot most issues, but I'd like to be able to fix most things. Someone recommended me Lubuntu.

Mostly, I'd like to hear your opinions. Thanks.

Specifically, I'd recommend Fedora Jam. It has all sorts of audio stuff preconfigured/preinstalled for musicians
