Please introduce yourself

@Doron_Beit-Halahmi Thanks! If you have any questions just ping me. I am not on here every night, but I will answer when I get down to it. I mostly use C# for my job, and while that language is available on Linux I don’t think its a common. I know a few other languages, and I do have interest in learning Go and Rust in the future.

Welcome to the community, Jimmy! I hope you have a great time here.

Welcome to the community, @Akatama

If you are interested in learning Rust, we have a tutorial series to help you get started :sunglasses:

Thanks everyone! @abhishek I did see those articles. I am quite busy right now with DevOps learning right now, but maybe in a bit I will take a look! It would certainly be a good place for me to start.

So I’m Dirk, from Belgium.
I’m doing an office job in the Brussels area.
At home I’m using Linux since 2014 now.
Tried and switched to different distributions, currently using Linux Mint Cinnamon.
I use the computer mostly for creative things: graphics and music.
My fav apps for graphic work are are Gimp, Inkscape, RawTherapee.
For music I use Reaper, Mod Audio, U-He synths, … (not FOSS I know, but I’m glad it all runs natively under Linux).

Within my friendzone, the existence of Linux is still a bit unknown. Let alone that people know that music can be made with (FL)OSS. For me the purpose is to spread the word, broaden the open source idea to more people, so they know they have possibilities too to be more creative in a free way. It can open eyes to more people or nudge other artists or the industry.

In the past 10 years I saw a lot change and tons of new applications coming up (certainly in Linux music production). However, there’s so much variety but things are a bit spread and unconnected.
I’d love to be updated and be in touch with interesting people via this community!

Hi Bulevardi @Bulevardi,
Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for mentioning Mod Audio, I didn’t know about it.

I’d like to see some audio topics from you, would you accept the challenge?

I know the programs you use may not be FOSS, but personally I’m very interested in participating to learn a bit more about audio and also share what I know. I use Ardour and Tracktion Waveform (I use the commercial version, but there is a free version). I know very few things about, but there may be users here on the forum who, like me, also want to take part: DAWs, plugins, whatever, do you accept the challenge?

Once again, welcome to It’s FOSS community

It’s a great idea.
I’ll think about something yes. There’s aswel a LinuxMusicians forum, but I think the diversity of people is more broad here to hear ideas from non-musicians aswel.
