This video digs into the research and design that went into gradually transforming Audacity 3 - a free and open source audio editor and production app - and ...
That said, the dark theme looks nice, and I’m glad they support macOS. I use Audacity from time to time, but I’m not a producer or anything. The current version is fine, my only complaint is it’s too dang bright. Same could be said of a couple tools in my toolkit but I don’t complain because I have a Mac and these developers target Windows first because they have to and Linux second because that’s either what they use, or what they like. Mac users have kind of always been the third wheel? It’s not free, it’s not tied to hardware, and it’s not tied to gaming, buying a computer from an old school computer company that doesn’t sell your data to the highest bidder (like Microsoft and Google do) and isn’t particularly concerned with gaming is just… well, not many people’s cup of tea. And that’s fine, we like what we like and we appreciate what we get.
As he should be. Creatives can comfortably use all major platforms, but Apple seems to cater to them. I don’t know what the actual benefit is aside from maybe community, but you can have that regardless of platform.
The video itself. It’s about how good one YouTuber is and how opportunistic another is. IDGAF about YouTube drama. I just wanted to see the new Audacity (and I kinda did). The rest is just noise.
Sounds like spin to me.

judging by the footage in the video, it seems like Tantacrul is a Mac user; I doubt he’d overlook the platform he uses

What’s the spin? They look to have done an incredible amount of work eliminating technical debt, and the UX improvements are outstanding, IMO.
