There’s a long list of supported controllers. The process for making your own mappings can indeed be a bit cumbersome, but it also seems to be quite powerful in the kind of features it can support, thanks to javascript integration.

Not sure about the library management, seems to work well enough for me.

I used WineASIO with Guitar Rig for a long time and it worked well and with acceptably low latency. It can be a hassle to set up though and I don’t know how it plays along with pipewire these days.

I’ve never used Traktor but I like Mixxx. What problems did you have with it?

That’s because they’re a malware company:

this has been going on in several different forms for years now so I’m just counting the days until the next annoying pop-up appears.

The solution is to not use their products. Use Linux.

The reason I want to build this kind of proxy is that any app would be able to use it with minimal changes (configurable API server). For proprietary apps, you’re still at the mercy of the devs, but their work is greatly simplified. For open source apps such as e.g. RedReader, Infinity, anyone could make those changes. Another thing that it might be useful for is bots and the like. If I manage to implement support for posting, those could work on Lemmy as well. I personally would like to see the return of kg2bee.

Since boost isn’t open source, the dev would have to allow you to configure the API endpoint (so the app would connect to the proxy instead of reddit.com), or someone would have to hack the app, which would probably be somewhat difficult.

An API proxy to allow 3rd party reddit clients to browse Lemmy with only minimal code changes. I’ve got it showing comments now :) Source isn’t uploaded yet, but it will be soon.
