video editor

KDen Live

Photoshop-compatible image editor

GIMP

illustration software

Inkscape

audio workstation

I can't tell what this is but I'm assuming it's also free

animation software

Blender

and the same 3D graphics & effects software used by Hollywood studios

Built in blender effects

It's really only listing what's pre-installed

Crono•8/12/24, 9:54 PM

The cosmetic boons you can install separately without paying as well, I believe

i think the DAW was just reaper or something

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 9:55 PM

Saying it like that is objectively scummy. Just say the name of the projects you're pretending are some grand reason to cough up 50 bones for Ubuntu with more extensions.

Pez•8/12/24, 9:56 PM

or maybe they need to add 3 layers of irony to everything so they can justify offering support as a meaningful addon

Pez•8/12/24, 9:56 PM

if they don't confuse the users enough nobody would even pay for it

PPez i think the DAW was just reaper or something

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 9:56 PM

I don't know much about DAWs

Does UBlue have a donate page or something similar?

sponsors on github in each projects repository

HikariKnight•8/12/24, 9:57 PM

so aurora, bazzite, bluefin and ucore

Crono•8/12/24, 9:57 PM

The names aren't very meaningful to people who aren't already in the know

VValerie I don't know much about DAWs

Pez•8/12/24, 9:58 PM

hard to say tbh. they're all pretty similar and they've tried to obscure whatever free software this is so you don't get any ideas

Thanks.

i think we should eventually follow what bluefin does with this nice resource:
https://docs.projectbluefin.io/donations

https://docs.projectbluefin.io

Donations

The next generation Linux workstation, designed for reliability, performance, and sustainability. Built for the love of the game. Welcome to indie Cloud Native.

CCrono The names aren't very meaningful to people who aren't already in the know

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 9:58 PM

My mistake.

Crono•8/12/24, 9:58 PM

It's just a marketing point, really. Not a big deal

Pez•8/12/24, 9:58 PM

this is literally the same problem as introducing a new character in a story

VValerie I don't know much about DAWs

Crono•8/12/24, 9:58 PM

That looks like Ardour

Pez•8/12/24, 9:58 PM

or rather just use this page and add all of the maintainers/contributors of bluefin/aurora/bazzite/ucore/main/etc.

Pez•8/12/24, 9:59 PM

lmao ardour

CCrono It's just a marketing point, really. Not a big deal

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 9:59 PM

Making people pay for free products, especially £48 is shitty.

Zorin might be good, but this is like actually scummy.

Pez•8/12/24, 9:59 PM

literally why are they not just selling support

Pez•8/12/24, 9:59 PM

or is it like i said

Pez•8/12/24, 10:00 PM

and they need to have three layers of irony on top of everything they do and wrap it up with support for anybody to take that seriously

Pez•8/12/24, 10:00 PM

like yeah i guess you would want support for this but normally when you come across a new distro it's the last thing on your mind

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 10:00 PM

1. GNOME Extensions
2. FOSS Apps
3. Probably more FOSS apps
4. Sure? I guess? Use google images idk

Pez•8/12/24, 10:00 PM

it's not like this isn't offered elsewhere in a way that doesn't insult my bloodline

VValerie Making people pay for free products, especially **£48** is shitty. Zorin might ...

Crono•8/12/24, 10:01 PM

You're paying for the packaging and support, essentially. It's kind of similar to RHEL's proposition, but for desktop.

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 10:01 PM

OH MY GOD, YOU NEED TO PAY PER-RELEASE

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 10:01 PM

Pez•8/12/24, 10:01 PM

they literally make ubuntu pro look good my man

ValerieOP•8/12/24, 10:01 PM

Zorin OS 18 Pro will need to be purchased separately when it will be released in the future. We will continue to support Zorin OS 17 with software updates until at least June 2027, and you will be able to use Zorin OS 17 Pro for life.
