VRR isn’t supported by default by most distros. Just because it works with your setup doesn’t mean it works for others.
Also, this event seems to be primarily focused on AMD/Mesa support.

Err… no it doesn’t. There are so many bug reports of neither HDR nor VRR working properly with the steam deck. My deck won’t even dock properly with my TV after recent updates.
It’s better than most other linuxes in the sense that it works sometimes I guess.
That’s such a silly argument. Nobody is forcing you to buy Fortnite skins when your kid is starving. Monetary incentives are how the things people want get created. Yes, there would still be plenty of content on the internet if we banned monetization of digital goods but it would be overwhelmingly incoherent and low quality.
It would also destroy the livelihood of millions of people. What about their children? Do they not deserve to eat?
Edit: I should add that it would be more reasonable for you to say “food and healthcare should be available to everyone”. That’s not an unreasonable statement.
Digital goods are infinite but the cost to produce them is real. If stock images were free there wouldn’t be very many of them.
Well that’s worrying… thanks for the heads up!
Yeah, I keep everything important backed up. I’m definitely fine if it dies. I’m just curious really.
It’s a relatively recent 1TB Samsung 980.

Thanks for the tip. I might have to try that. It was working mostly fine one day (no VRR) and then it was completely broken the next. :(
