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?

    Completely dodged the question to crow about nix. I’m 90% convinced nix users are the new “arch BTW” users.

      New user comes to ask question about their distro: gets “use NixOS; it’s totally simple”.

      Weirdos.

      What was the question then? Wasn’t it about the distro of my choice and how it handles packages specifically about media creation? I fell like you folks just saw nix decided “nah f this guy” but ok I get it. Ps.: Im self aware if you read the last few lines

        You just went on about how easy nix is to configure, then about adding bluetooth devices, then jumped to installing ableton on windows.

        Op specified they are a musician using a studio distro for studio tasks. You didn’t address any of that.

        I get that you’re impressed with nix and want to share, and nothing wrong with that. But let’s at least stay on topic.

          Ableton - Digital Audio Workspace MIDI - Musical Instrument Digital Interface Scarlette 2i2 - Audio interface

          Compatibility,dependencies are the most important things when it comes to digital studio machines. At least that’s what my 15yrs of audio engineering experience taught me. Not sure how I didn’t addressed any of that my dude but if you wanna hate I’m here for it. You hate my choices for the sake of it I love yours for the same reason
