Have you tried MeshCore? It seems there's a lot more people on it (at least here in Europe).

I've tried all sorts of tricks with Copilot CLI to get it to use LSP; project instructions, file extension instructions, but it just keeps forgetting. And says "yea you're right I should have used it" but then doesn't.

Check out the MoonModules fork/variant of WLED too, it has much better audio reactive user mods and visualisation options https://mm.kno.wled.ge/ than the main project.

And yea, I agree with the article. In my past I've also dabbled in audioreactive for LEDs and it's fiendishly difficult to make anything interesting.

Make it react too much, and it's chaos, and inversely when the algorithm reacts less the audio, it's boring.

And in all cases it's really not easy to see what the leds are doing in correspondence to all the complexity of music.
