I would agree, if a good UI wouldn't be something which not only can be very inspirational to work with, but also make things a lot easier than a bad UI.vurt wrote: ↑Tue Mar 23, 2021 3:11 pmpeople who have a clue what they are doing use tools that work.XxEDxX wrote: ↑Tue Mar 23, 2021 3:07 pm Let's not makes this about Melda.

I like Audacity for literally opening up without loading time. Other wave editors need to preload stuff or initialize it. I recently needed to create DTMF tones and only knew Audacity for being able to create those nice and easy. The dark theme indeed is already an improvement.
others like pretty things.
So, basically... I don't think I agree at all. Unless you dumb down "good UI" to "pretty things". Which is not what this is about. A good UI can be functional, and not very pretty. Or, it can be both functional AND pretty, which makes it an even better UI. Audacity is none of those.
