Hi Erich,

I know this chain is getting long, but I have a big decision to make and
need advice. In terms of best functionality, most users, best support,
would you recommend:

   1. Ubuntu Studio 20.4 LTS
   2. Ubuntu Studio 20.10
   3. Fedora Jam (32 or 33)


I'm partial to Fedora, maybe because I've been using it with Stanford's
CCRMA repo for 20 years or so. But I get the impression everyone else is
settling on Ubuntu as the standard. I also prefer KDE and stability, so
last week I installed Kubuntu 20.4 and U-studio on one hard drive, and
Fedora 32 Jam on another. I didn't find much difference, so settled on
Fedora and spent a few days correcting Carla plug-in paths, compiling
WhySynth 2017 and OxeFMSynth etc. But it's not too late to change.

My day job is stressful but pays well. Music is keeping me sane. I would
love to contribute to one or both of these projects.

Thanks
Steve
