      ??? Wayland protocol was not "released" 9 years ago. They started developing it 9 years ago.

        fuck GPU miners, that's why.

          Yup. At least AMD didn't try to feed me some bullshit press release about how they care more about gamers than [strike]miners[/strike]$.

            I have 2 Nvidia GPUs and I still don't understand why the Linux community get so low into pleasing this shitware company?
            Seriously, all this energy could've been better used into supporting a company that really cares about user's freedom like AMD.
            I can barely wait to ditch my 2 Nvidia GPUs and buy from AMD.

              Instead of publishing a "bullshit" press release , they published special drivers for mining.

                What an absolute clusterfuck, just because nvidia is large enough that people will eventually bend over like the good little bitches they are.

                  Yeah, that's a strange love-hate relationship with Nvidia.
                  I always bought from Nvidia. I'm super-pissed to see the desktop (at least under KDE ?) is so super smooth with virtually any shitty super slow GPU and jerky with a several hundreds $ GPU. Yeah, games work superbly, though, but I'm not sure I need games actually ;-) Videogames are just a bad habit IMHO
                  I temporarily removed my Nvidia and use the integrated Intel HD. Oh man, it feels like the hardware is several times as fast.

                    That's still a perfectly honest way of acting. Miners bought a ton of their GPUs, it makes sense to have special drivers for them the same as they make profiles for games and such.

                    Bullshit press releases are just plain lies.

                      AMD is the one who says gamers are important to us , yet they just keep feeding miners via drivers.

                      But most GPUs are sold to miners Lisa Su was asked at Q2'17 investors conference call about the mining market and she was brave enough to say that the company didn’t plan its financials on the mining market boom. This sales tsunami did give AMD a great quarter,  but at the expense that pluc...


                      Isn't that a plain lie too?

                      I don't get Linux community. You are being unfair to Nvidia and praising AMD for everything.

                      Let's look at the past. When did you start to have functioning AMD cards on Linux vs when on Nvidia?

                      Nvidia was there at the beginning and they are here too now.

                      Just throw away your AMD fanboying , don't try to justify every AMD move.
