Even more reason to switch to Linux!

Absolutely correct, Microsoft giving everyone the reason to finally switch to Linux and AMD not wasting time or energy on that steamy pile of crap

But given AMDs support on Linux being so nice it's at least going to be a fairly painless switch

Are they... releasing Linux support?

~~AMD began submitting Zen 5 patches for Linux this time last year and have been steadily submitting in anticipation of Zen 5 / Ryzen 9000.~~

~~So technically they’ve already released Linux support.~~

~~Edit: Proof from kernel.org showing Zen 5 named specifically.~~

Edit: I’m a dumbass. Ryzen AI 300 isn’t on Zen 5 but XDNA 2. XDNA support has been open sourced by AMD on GitHub and, according to a developer, they are trying to get it upstream too. The are committing to that repo all the time so I wouldn’t be surprised their XDNA 2 branch is merged in time for release.

Sounds promising, crossing my fingers!

AMD has been supporting Linux officially for a very long time (both on the CPU [and chipset] and GPU side of things).

We get it, Linux good Windows bad. I agree, but we don't need to see this comment on every post.

[-] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Almost like discussing AMD's driver support on alternate OSes is relevant.

If you got upset by someone mentioning Linux, just scroll by. Or downvote if you really are that petty.
