Mixxx is alright but I prefer the robustness and simplicity of Serato. And my turntables technically are MIDI controllers. Fully digital and no needle or DVS interface needed. But spins and behaves just like real vinyl. I don't like controllers with static jogwheels, which limits my selection when it comes to MIDI hardware. I've considered real turntables but they are out of my budget. And they can be finicky when using them with DJ software.
specialized hardware situations are the one where I don't tell people to try linux. it's the people who only do web browsing or very light office work that should switch ASAP
