- Fucking Catalyst kernel module is gone. No more GPF kernel crashes after week of uptime. No more black screens after kernel upgrades. Regardless if it was "pro" or "non-pro".
- Bonus: bye-bye tainted kernels, so you do not collect middle fingers of whole kernel team anymore when trying to report bug.
- Now Linux driver performance is on par with Windows. Historically, AMD's Windows driver had better performance in most cases. So it seems reworking Linux driver seriously fixed it in the process.
- As bonus, all-open stack exposes really neat performance in these runs and now it hit OpenGL 4.3 level. So there're quite few reasons to mess with blobs at all.
