Thought this would be the right place to vent. I've been using Vegas for well over a decade now and it has become a vital part of my workflow as a Youtube editor, I'm in a lot of editing communities to network, find clients, share assets, and generally just be around other people that have the same passion for editing that I have.

What is it with people assuming that Vegas is some sort of relic from a bygone age? I'll sit in voice chats to work alongside other editor friends of mine, sharing screens, getting thoughts from others and there's always one person that comes in to scoff when they see that Vegas is part of my workflow. "lmaooo vegas in 2025???" "is that SONY vegas?!" "Why don't you just use prem like everyone else? it's the industry standard." - at this point I've basically become a full blown representitive for the program because every time I need to sit there and demonstrate just how capable the program is. I shouldn't need to defend the program at all, but I do, because I LOVE Vegas. When I produce a complex composit, people act like I'm actively choosing to use a broken cannoe over a shiny gold yacht. I have AE, but I don't need it because I can do it in Vegas. I don't need prem or davinci because I can do all of it in Vegas. Finally, if one more person calls it Sony Vegas, I'm gonna lose it.
