I didn't get to try it under PipeWire on my Arch laptop before that died the other day, but a friend had said PulseEffects is no longer such a massive CPU hog under PipeWire, so much so that they run it all the time now.
Using JACK apps to route between PulseAudio apps under PipeWire is magic, as is being able to turn on external DACs after login and still be able to use them with JACK apps without restarting any software. Also PulseAudio not randomly switching to the wrong sample rate when I open pavucontrol is a blessing. (And it's so easy to setup, at least on Arch Linux.).
I have come to describe PW as like a superset of JACK and PulseAudio.
Also to note, #pipewire is very active on freenode, and wtay regularly drops into #lad.
"And one more thing- which I'm sure doesn't apply to you- the idea that past harm justifies new harm is the same beliefs that justified the rise of a certain dictator in a certain central european power behaved in the 1930s/40s."
Those words are too vague. People were led to believe that the core of their government was being defrauded. Were they harmed? Did some of them go on to harm?
(I didn't see your flagged comment. Currently mine is at -3.)
Something utilising and also filling in the gaps of the JACK, LV2, and soon PipeWire based modular Linux/libre audio workstation (including NSM, CV, Atoms) but more of focus on Ableton Link than JACK Transport?
