I've been using Linux since you could only install it using floppy disks and CD-ROMs. Typing this on a MacBookAir4,2 1.0 (2011) running Manjaro. My other notebook is a Thinkpad X240 (2013) running EndeavourOS. Both I bought second-hand. I also live in a shithole latam. country, so I'm biased.
I'm grateful to the Linux community for their life-time dedication an sound focus, it surely changed my life and made computing affordable for me for over 3 decades, which in turn, brought me to Bitcoin over 8 years ago. Life-changing technology indeed.
To complain that it doesn't support your latest GPU is the poster example of first-world problems to me.
Just yesterday I was listening to Saifedean Ammous (author of The Bitcoin Standard) on the Lex Fridman podcast. When commenting on the Bitcoin power consumption issue, he contrasted it to the power consumption of washing machines in the western world and mentioned how he survived living in Lebanon thanks to Bitcoin. Then he was allowed to add:
"So, f*ck your washing machines!"
I feel the same about your GPUs.
You are mistaken. I don't want Linux to work worse on old hardware.
I only want it to work better in the high end - this isn't a zero-sum-game here.
Also, I don't get why you are so aggressive.
