Pipewire and PulseAudio

What is pipewire? Shouldn't this be alsa vs pulseaudio?

Sir, it's 2024, not 2006.

Pipewire is a more modern replacement for pulseaudio.

I have never heard of alsa. Pipewire is supposed to be the better pulseaudio is it not?

[-] vaionko@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

Alsa is the very base of the Linux audio system. Pipewire and pulseaudio run on top of it. Back before pulseaudio it was directly used by software
