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.

Here's the update, I've got the USB-C/HDMI adapter today. Connected it to the port that connects directly to the dGPU and even during boot Plymouth was already outputting video to the TV. I also tested hot-plugging and it just works as expected.
Now for the problems, I ran benchmarks and the performance was as expected, but frame delivery didn't look as good as when using the HDMI port on this device. It doesn't show on the performance metrics, but looking at the screen, the frametimes looked off, stuttering. I'm still figuring out where the issue might be to report it to upstream. EDIT: For people reading this in the future, I've found the issue to be in GNOME's compositor, Mutter: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/3070#note_1865351
appreciate the update!
