    i mean… any hardware is kinda just a matter of time imo

    linux already works with more hardware than windows does, and often more reliably - not some of the complex stuff required for gaming of course, but again… matter of time. it’s not important until it’s important and then it really kicks off

        the point is that the architecture and development style of linux provides for a very robust and reliable platform to develop hardware for

        gaming is a VERY new thing on linux, so it’s not at all surprising that support is in its infancy… but you look at things that linux has been doing basically since the internet has existed: servers, and hardware support is unmatched

        … and there’s way more server hardware than there are most other categories of hardware
