HDMI Forum is unwilling to disclose the 2.1 specification for open-source (Linux): according to AMD, they had submitted a functional, HDMI 2.1-compatible driver [for linux?], which the Forum rejected.

I do not really have a body for this. I was not aware that this is a thing and
still feel like this is bs, but maybe there is an actual explanation for HDMI
Forum’s decision that I am missing.
I really hope we’ll see TVs with DisplayPort one day.
Why even buy 'em, tho? They’re basically shitty monitors with spyware for brains.
Well if you want anything over 35 inches a TV is your only option. They don’t really make monitors bigger than that.
well its not the only option, its the only consumer ended option.
the corporate option is large format display/digital signage screens
If you actually give a fuck about image quality beyond size and brightness, digital signage also isn’t really an option. You won’t find many commercial oled displays, for example.
Best option for home entertainment, imo, is still a consumer TV, that you just never connect to the internet and use a set top box with, instead.
Assuming they don’t start using meshnet to spy on you anyways.
Don’t give them any ideas
