Also of interest might be this 1:1 remake of FastTracker 2: https://16-bits.org/ft2.php https://16-bits.org/ft2.php. I’ve only played around briefly but it was exactly as I remember it!
FT2 was pretty much my intro to making music, it came on a PC Format magazine cover CD with a a bunch of XM/MOD files and it blew my mind that I could open up these songs and see how they were made!
I never got particularly good with it but had some fun making tracks with a friend, we later graduated to MadTracker on Windows which added some useful things like filters and effects. Buzz was the last tracker I used, really awesome modular tracker which sadly got mostly abandoned. I am a big fan of Elektron hardware which is pretty tracker inspired though!

It compiles perfectly well on my Pinebook Pro, so now I have with me all the time, along with the equally fantastic PT2 clone: https://16-bits.org/pt2.php https://16-bits.org/pt2.php
