Exclusive Preview Of System76's Completely Redesigned Thelio Desktop Review

It has been eight years already since System76 announced Thelio as their own built-in-the-USA, custom-engineered cases for desktops and workstations.

I was wondering why https://vulkan.gpuinfo.org/displayextensiondetail.php?extension=VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace reports zero support on Linux, eventhough it has been supported on Mesa for a year and recently been added to Nvidia too. Then I noticed that all uploaded Linux reports generally state no present support for any queue families. I wonder if that's related?
