You know, if I had influence I’d remove all the “features”, release a new version and make a public announcement. Audacity has been such a great piece of software for so many years and would be a great shame for all of us if it slowly went to pieces and disappeared. Then again, maybe this must happen for new software and alternatives to be born - there are industrial strength audio libraries available as open source that will be used to create the next iteration of audio editors. Even browsers are capable of 80% of what most people use Audacity for. I suppose its a part of life, good things come to an end and then you have to go through the trash to find the next good thing.
