@ercanbrack@mastodon.online I've been developing VST, game engine & middleware plugins for almost 5 years and my main OS is Linux. As a consequence, all our plugins are also available on Linux, no showstoppers whatsoever. I also run Windows and macOS out of necessity, since our products are multi-platform and some compiler toolchains are only available on Windows. Customer demand on the other hand is quasi non-existant since nobody targets native Linux. Shame, because Audio on Windows has been a dumpster fire for more than 20 years and there's no end in sight. Pipewire is so much better than WASAPI it's not even fair. Edit: I should add that apart from JUCE or the respective game engine/middleware sdk, we completely rolled our own stack with only std lib dependencies, which puts us in a good position. If you depend on any system libs, that's where your life starts getting miserable.
