  • Decent audio experience?

    You can tweak any distro but, pay attention to using Jack + PREEMPT_RT kernel + Xlibre (X11).

    Avoid Wayland (especially with nvidia GPU), avoid Pipewire and avoid Gnome desktop.

    I suggest starting out with Debian stable as the base. There are specialised AV Linux distros available but nothing beats knowing what you’re doing from the outset.

    If you need the very latest version of a particular app not available as a distro package, Flatpak is your friend. Again, Debian ‘.debs’ and AppImage are most prevalent third party packages outside the proprietary app stores of Flathub & Snapcraft.












  • Yes, I tested the ‘Go’ version which allows 3 day trial before levying a subscription.

    Based on that I purchased the ‘Pro’ version as it meets my needs well and I hate farking subscriptions lol

    • Beware there are imitators with almost identical app names and identical app descriptions.

    You want the app by Stratospherix


  • ‘File Browser’ looks promising. Comes in 3 versions, less featured one off purchase, full featured subscription version (Go) or full featured one off purchase (Pro).

    Has been in the App Store many years, still in active development. Affordable. Will probably plump for this if nothing better is suggested.

    • This is the app by Stratospherix. There are imitators in the App Store
