MODERATORS
Calling open source communism aside, capitalism and those who benefit the most from it probably absolutely HATE the largest open source projects because the more people use those, the less likely they are to use their telemetry based spy/bloatware.
Imagine trying to make a paid video/audio file player in today's day and age and going up against the titan that is VLC. Or an audio editor/playback program in similar fashion to Audacity. Two of the biggest open source programs that I imagine just about anyone who has used a computer has probably heard of and/or used at some point.
Well, Reaper is more popular with musicians than Audacity, and it follows the Winrar business model
I'd argue that Audacity (audio recording/editing/processing suite) is a little different niche than Reaper (full-fledged DAW). If your use case is "I'm doing a podcast and I need to do an audio recording from multiple mics and mix them down", Audacity is good enough that there's no point in paying extra for a DAW. If you're a musician and you need to mess nondestructively with recordings and MIDI and filters, then you know you need to go bigger.
Ardour.
It's paid unless you know how to compile it.
Easy enough to compile...
Didn't know that. Fair enough for them.
