I have been using 3.3.0 and have to keep it because any newer version screws up the ability to properly preview using the very newest (or the older ones for that matter) Cedar Studio 9.4 VST3 plugins. The way they work under 3.3.0 isn’t too great either as I can not adjust during playback, but at least I am able to select a length and it will play that section. The newer versions, including 3.7.1 will only let you preview a very short section and you cannot adjust anything as it is playing. This is a bad bug and the folks at Cedar Audio say it has nothing to do with their plugin. I hope it can get fixed as this plugin is the best noise reduction you can get. These plugins are the key to my editing and if I cannot use them Audacity is useless to me.
Technically, compatibility is up to the plug-in developer.
With commercial plug-ins, the developer’s website will usually have a list of supported hosts. But the only host application I saw on the Cedar website was Pro Tools.
I don’t actually know of any commercial plug-ins that officially support Audacity. They probably assume that Audacity users don’t want to pay for anything.
With free plug-ins it’s usually just hit-or-miss.
