From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

To quote you: "I can’t tell you anything about gaming."
"I can’t tell you anything about gaming."
Funny how you tell stories about completely different issues the post is about just to promote NVidia...
The only company outright deprecating older GPUs is NVidia who don't support anything before Turing for Wayland. AMD drivers are fully open source and are also being worked on by Valve and Collabora for the Steam Deck. If anything, AMD hardware is more likely to be supported in quite some time because of Steam Deck but you wouldn't know this because you "can’t tell anything about gaming."
