The windows vulkan driver is called XGL? That's not confusing lol

That is a big deal. RadeonSI has always had official support but for some reason AMD has been ignoring RADV in favor of their own stuff. Glad to see they're shifting to mesa for literally everything other than compute.

That makes so much more sense lol

What do you mean when you say it spits out real windows code?

It's slightly amusing that with X.Org slowly becoming totally unmaintained that every WM is gonna end up in this category as Wayland compositors displace them.

Interesting, before my system76 laptop I had an HP, and before that a Dell. My desktop has had both gigabyte and Asus mobos in it over the years. I personally run Debian but I self compile my kernel, mostly for debloat and minor preference changes.

I must just be really lucky then? I've been running Linux exclusively for about a decade, including on my laptops and while my most recent laptop is from System76 every laptop I had before this one and all the HW in my desktop was purchased without considering Linux compatibility because I literally haven't had hardware compatibility issues in years. I thought those issues were from Linux of the past and my own experience agrees with that. Weird.

It's wild to me that even MS and the WSL play nicely with mesa but not Nvidia, God forbid Nvidia play nicely.

This might be the first time I've ever approved of the use of DRM

Unrelated to the question but I don't believe webm(matroska) is based on RIFF, webp is but that's separate.

Maybe it's just me but it feels like calling it anything other than Linux is just an UHM, ACKTUALLY. And that's saying something because I'm one of the most pedantic people I know.
