they can't do everything that hundreds of pieces of software on Mac or
Windows do, doesn't mean they are incomplete. This is ESPECIALLY true

I like to let you know that we never have the goal to make a competition

Your software only provides one specific piece to the selection of guitar
FX software.
This is a perfect example of why Linux is different, at least for audio,
than other OSs.
Not really, AFAIK it's possible to run several independent apps on
Windows too. FWIW one of the guitar apps many people use on Windows is

I don't need much virtual effects and virtual synth, but for users that
need a lot of virtual gear, there's more available for Windows and Mac.
