Any recommendations for easy-to-use Linux distribution for audio production? I might try PipeWire installation too if it’s stable and compatible enough.
I’ve been using debian based distros for 10+ years for now: started with Ubuntus and the last half I’ve spent with Debian 9/10 but I’ve become tired of fixing things. I’ve considered MX Linux and LMDE. I have some experience with them already (although haven’t tried Mint’s Debian variant yet).
For years I’ve been bridging JACK and pulseaudio, but it’s never been optimal, hence considering PipeWire. I read somewhere that wire plumber package in MX is broken. Not sure about the current state. I probably need to know things like these beforehand when installing a distro or another.

You might already know about it but I saw someone using rtkit with pipewire. I think it’s for real-time threads priorities.
They also changed a bunch of stuff in the default config. I have no idea what it’s for. See: https://github.com/lovesegfault/nix-config/blob/ad9a15936e162e3cb8e28eb5a5d0f2fbd4834ff9/hardware/sound.nix
Just to be clear, I’m not suggesting nixos for audio. Your message just make be think about someone’s config so I thought it could interest people reading this thread.
