It's true, I don't have any significant personal experience with 3D modeling or animation. I think my point stands, though: It took a LONG time for Blender to catch up (exceed?) the proprietary alternatives, and it's certainly not going to see widespread adoption in industry for a long time more, if ever.

And it took a long time for LibreOffice to match Excel. And for LMMS to match FL Studio's capacities. And for Linux distros to become as user-friendly as Windows.

Corporation-side, sure, it'll most likely take the retirement/death of the Baby Boomers for that to change. But it's already changing in the public, though.

Has LMMS caught up to FL Studio? I remember being super-excited when I first learned of LMMS and then super-disappointed when I couldn't get it to do anything. :3c

Yeah. You still DO have to find instrument samples (the base ones are, as expected, not that great), but the beat and synth parts are just as developed as FL's. Still a little bit harder to learn, and your result will sound a little bit midi-ish if you don't entirely know what you're doing, but I consider LMMS to be professional-grade now.

Mm. You got some good knowledge and opinions. We should follow each other.

Thanks, done!
