Good video, very much worth watching despite the length. New UI will look something like this:

with an option for a more classic look.

Looks like an enourmous UX improvement too, and a rewrite to QT and eliminating a lot of technical debt will make development faster.

    if the concern is just about telemetry, I seriously wonder why Tenacity isn’t just a soft fork of Audacity, like VSCodium is to VS code, or Librewolf to Firefox.

    that way you get the best of both worlds, the amazing new features in Audacity, without the worry of corporate control

      Because then you’re just describing Audacity. The concerning feature has to be intentionally activated by the user. And if you download and build it yourself then that part of the code isn’t even accessible. You have to modify the code to activate it before you build it. I’m actually glad with the way they handled it. They listen to the user base and if you follow tantacrul he regularly consults changes with the users.
