You’d have to design hardware specifically that’s compatible with Linux
What makes you think that?
I mean probably never? You’d have to design hardware specifically that’s compatible with Linux, which would cost a fortune, in the hopes of selling a whole bunch of them, and they can’t even get large numbers of people to use Linux for free.

I don’t know how to answer that. Because most hardware is not compatible.

The only thing that is lacking for compatibility incompatible is drivers. If that’s what you meant you should have said so instead of saying hardware needs to be designed. If that’s not what you meant then you don’t know what you’re talking about.

I see that guy everywhere. 2k comments in 3 months. He genuinely does not know much of anything.

It isn’t fundamentally incompatible, there is just a lack of drivers.
You don’t need new hardware, you need driver support.

I’m not really so concerned with how it’s incompatible…

I think they meant you’d have to design a combination of hardware that’s all compatible with Linux - that is, that has Linux driver support.

they already exist, the (software) interface is what needs work.
