It's not like ardour is the only DAW around. Audacity is also not the
only editor around. Depending on your needs there is at least Traverso
(making huge progress in git), qtractor, ecasound, muse and some more on
the DAW front and mhwaveedit, rezound, snd and others on the editor
front. The best known one isn't necessarily the best one for any given
job.
