minus-squaregregorumlinkfedilinkEnglish-2•edit-29 months agook, I get that much. what I’d like to know, if you’re willing to explain: what’s it going to be like deploying that on, say, a Mac workstation? a pop_os workstation? (edit: such as: how, can I on macOS, will I work with after effects, etc.) thanks for your time
