Awesome, thanks for the advice! And I will for sure let you know when I upload it somewhere, but I can tell you the tools I use right now! I've got Ardour for my DAW, I'm using a mix of the Ardour community plugins, LSP parametric equalizer, Calf compressor, and the two non-FOSS ones are Graillon 3 auto tune and Acon Digital Multiply. Drums are via Hydrogen, with the Ian Paice and Travis Barker drumkits from sourceforge, and I think I yanked Dave Grohl's toms for one song. Some other various drum effects I got off of Pixabay. The main album art is going to be handmade because I suck at GIMP, but if I get enough support to make like, a vinyl pressing or something, then I'll include all my failed attempts at album art in the liner notes lol

For sure, that's why I was asking about an "imadethis" community, like a community explicitly for self-promotion. Looks like there is one on lemm.ee, so I'll definitely post there once I am truly finished with the thing.

Thanks! Yeah, me too lol, it'd be kind of a bummer to have put all this work into it and then no one listens to my tunes! Most of them are pretty good!

Yeah, fair enough, just thought I'd get a feel for the vibe before I just did the thing. It's probably gonna be at least a month before I release anything, but like I said in the post, I don't see other musicians posting their stuff here, so I just wanted to make sure it was cool.

Yeah, I just wanted to hit all the ask communities, get a broad spectrum of answers.

They just hadn't bought one yet.

You're naming them out of the stuff that specifically isn't space!

Separate partitions for / and /home, save all your data, configs, etc. but you can still distrohop!

I would. As much as I've tried, I can't lose the Texan accent, I hate it because that's totally not how I sound in my head.
