Linux has very little to do with DisplayPort. My Windows PCs use DisplayPort.

What? I’m not sure what you’re on about. Of course DP is not a Linux specific technology. Not sure what that has to do with my comment specifically.

I’m talking about people who would like to use the full capabilities of their HDMI TVs ( while using AMD), when using Linux.

My understanding is the adapters do not provide all the features of the HDMI 2.1 spec. Is that no longer the case?

The problem is those passive adapters only work because one side switches to the other's protocol.
