Twitter just sneaked in a new rule disallowing links to competing platforms, right during the world cup finals
Gods, screaming at all my mutuals to leave had zero effect in getting them to leave, and now this.
At least I’m easy to find online, but they aren’t.

@tenacity @kamikazow there is nothing to see though. WxWidgets and Qt is an experimental project by some who's not working on it anymore.
Upstream audacity is already changing away from WxWidgets, but that will take a significant amount of time still.
I was and still am on the opinion that the best would be a closely-follow-upstream but without telemetry and musehub and co., which would take significant less effort. There is already a full team of developers refreshing the UI..

Amazon workers in Coventry vote to go on strike in the new year. They were classed as key workers during the pandemic… but are treated like robots for low pay. Amazon has plenty money to go around.
> This time the turnout was 63%, with 98% of those backing strike action, marking the first time Amazon workers in the UK have voted to do so.

@odo send that to @uheplugins too!
Just noticed Luciano Iam updated to latest DPF and enabled CLAP builds. 👏 👏
Of course also in other formats, LV2, VST2 and VST3 are there.
The https://github.com/lucianoiam/consul project is specially cool, like a custom OSC remote control but simplified and in audio plugin form.
Also https://github.com/lucianoiam/hiphop is updated, which is how the plugins are built. Providing a way to mix JavaScript/HTML/CSS and plugin GUIs.
Cool stuff!
Firefox snap was updated to 108, sadly the WebMIDI functionality is not enabled.
meh 😞
Same happens on the chromium snap too.
They sure make it hard to be excited for these things... 🙃
ZamAudio and CLAP, just one more fix to get this working fully 👏 👏
See https://www.zamaudio.com/?p=976 for details on these.
The 4.0 release already has VST3 and CLAP, but a little fix is needed to get them to work nicely in these formats. Pull request already sent upstream.
@uheplugins the DISTRHO stuff still evolves, the zamaudio plugin collection will be ready for release very soon :)

We've just released Ardour 7.2. Not many big new features this time, but it's a nice balance between bug fixes and various improvements.
You can now use MIDI Learn for trigger slots, easily discover Ardour in TouchOSC, import and export Opus files, import MIDI Lyrics.
There have also been UX improvements, notably in the region bouncing feature.
Oh, and we've eliminated a lot of crashes when editing the tempo map!
See here for more details:

security and MIDI dont have to be related.
MIDI is a super simple and trivial protocol, just some bytes to designate status and channel, plus some values to go along with a message. midi messages dont typically take more than 3 7-bit values.
exception is sysex, which allows to talk directly to hardware yes.
but sysex is an optional flag on the webmidi API request.
the cardinal web app thing does not request sysex permissions but that popup still appears.
