Since that whole telemetry debacle, I have no interest in this project. Tenacity is where it is at.
I never heard of Tenacity before. I thought the most popular fork was named Auditious or something similar.

Afaik, back when it all went down, they heard the public reaction about the telemetry thing and completely reversed course. On top of that, many distros would be sure to never distribute a build with telemetry enabled anyway. So there has never been any cause for concern. Would love to be proven wrong, though.
Also, Audacity is handy, but it's not perfect, and I'll gladly use a better alternative. But the last time I tried Tenacity, it had a bunch of little differences that made the tool just a bit harder to use. So I still default to audacity.
The fact they were willing to try it says all it needs to about them. They only stopped because of complaints.
Your argument is like saying Unity game engine is fine because they rolled back on the changes. Nope.
Tenacity is much more trustworthy for me.
Could you elaborate on the harder to use? It was a fork so should be pretty similar. They overhauled the build stuff to make it easier to build on multiple systems.
