Downloading it audacity for the first time, jump to 4 or download the older version.

A lot of this subreddit seems to people disliking if not hating audacity 4, while as a new person I imagine a lot of the complaints of confused muscle memory mean little to me and learning the new program is wiser long term, it's still super negative sentiment so I'm not exactly sure if I'd be making a mistake to pick the new version.

My uses are simple, I'd be mostly recording voiceovers to create powerpoint presentation videos. no effects or complex vocals involved. I imagine educational content would be all teaching the older version for now too so there is that. I also don't like that that I kinda got tricked into downloading a second muse software although thankfully I could delete it and audacity 4 seems to work fine standalone.
