Windows 11 vs Linux supported HW - Lemmy

If only Linux had something like this learn.microsoft.com/en-us/…/hlk/ to tell you if your device is going to run smoothly on it. Realistically Windows 10 is far more supported by hardware than any version of Linux you can come up with. I’ve yet to run into a CPU that doesn’t work with 11 although my AMD CPU wasn’t supported for the first 5 months. At that time Windows literally told me “Don’t upgrade 'cause we don’t support it yet!” Linux has never done anything like that. Instead, I get prompts to “update 1200 software!” (One of them is your kernel and we won’t tell you!) then you hit update and brick your entire system because they didn’t have the video card driver modules for the kernel updated.
Windows Hardware Lab Kit

This guide provides information about the tests that are included in the Windows Hardware Lab Kit, and instructions on how to build a test environment, automate driver and system testing, and create a submission package required to participate in the Windows Hardware Compatibility Program.

Would you like some dressing with your word salad? Nothing you said actually makes sense or reflects reality.
Don’t know what to tell you, other people seem to be reading it just fine enough to upvote it. If you have questions about what I said, ask away.
Do you not understand the concept of negative numbers? That minus in front of the 6 means you’re getting the opposite of upvotes.

I’ve always been able to read that my kernel is included in an update.

Are you updating throught he command line or some visual front?

Since nobody gave you an actual response yet, you can see Linux-compatible hardware here: linux-hardware.org

Note: The list is much larger than Windows, for everything from CPUs to peripherals

Looking for a more stable distro could be a good idea. Some distros are pretty much only PoC, or too niche to have a good support, or the beta channel of another, better supported distro.
Besides, Windows can be very laggy even on supported hardware.

Every AMD processor from the Ryzen 1000-series and older. I'm not sure where the line is with Intel processors, but requiring TPM excludes a lot of otherwise useful hardware.

I’ve always found the Tpm complaints a little suspicious. The same people who go on and on about how much they worry about security and privacy and how MS doesn’t care, suddenly just don’t give a shit in these cases. I assume they mostly just want to shit on stuff.

It’s a good to push to make it standard and hardware manufacturers wont without a good old shove.

I complain about TPM because it made my system unable to boot without desactivating it, i don’t really care about TPM but the implementation seems disastrous
