Are you sure you wish to read the post that used to live at this URL? It was published in 2021, was excessively verbose, was intended for a very small audience, but got popular because of the Streisand effect.
Its second part about my future plans is also entirely outdated.
While my stint with VCV rack was damaging to my enthusiasm for modular synthesis for a time, I am now involved in DIY hardware. It’s a healthier environment where i don’t have to humor people’s bad attitudes.
If VCV Rack is still chasing away third-party developers, i am certain more people have written about it, and if nobody has written about it since then, this old post might no longer accurately reflect its current culture. I have not been involved for years, do not plan to ever get involved again, and do not care.
With me starting to keep a blog again, i’m taking the opportunity to take the page down.
If you still wish to read this article, head over to the internet archive, with the understanding it’s a time capsule from 2021.
