    hdmi should be put out of it's misery, there is no sense in using hardware that comes with licensing restrictions. Any standard should be open.

    Even apple was successfully forced to adopt a superior open standard to stop the waste they maintained with their shitty alternative.

    HDMI has long overstayed its welcome and deserves nothing more than to fade into obsolescence

    older versions still delivered pixels synchronous to the cathode ray of a CRT would display them, having gaps for vblank/hblank (with no error correction)
    its so atrocious i had to read thru the spec myself to believe it
    yes, you can... find copies of both the HDMI and PDF spec. It's not the greatest thing ever, but Displayport is a behemoth.

    I think that the Linux foundation and many of the othe big companies involved with open source should do something about it, instead of just letting AMD going at it alone.

    offtopic, the new redesign removed the like button? This sucks.

    DP lost the capacity to know a monitor is still connected but just turned off. This causes desktop/window mess up when one turn off a monitor without turn off the computer.

    While it's really annoying that HDMI 2.1 went closed... HDMI connectors are now well past patent age and unless you're looking for 10k video, probably any version is going to meet your needs.

    I suspect that HDMI will be killed by USB shortly anyway.

    Just like HDMI, you plug and it works. What are you encountering with DP that's complicated, that isn't for HDMI?
