That's not a thing.
Gnome and kde don't bring drivers, they bring a compositor. The drivers come from LINUX and other packages like MESA which are distro agnostic.
OS compatibility is in the hands of the engineers and developers, or more accurately in the hands of corporations that will go where there's money. If you want shit to work on linux, you need to use linux.
No way, are you sure??
Yes. Linux on desktop is by design modulable, you grab parts from plenty of different packages and put them together to make a distribution. Gnome and KDE are just packages, large ones with plenty of dependencies to be sure, but just packages. Here's gnome package on arch, do you see any driver?
Wow, this is mindblowing!! Can you teach me more about Linux??
I have to ask. Are you sincere?
No, I'm not sincere with a person who completely ignored my point that Windows-alike DE doesn't make Linux a viable alternative due to lack of software and hardware support. Stop lecturing people when nobody asked for a lecture.
Such a weird take on that back and forth. I suppose you're not used to saying Incorrect things, and having someone point that out.
Reacting to that with sarcasm, to that extent? I hope you're a teenager still figuring yourself out.
Understood, thank you for your valuable opinion on the subject (no).
So edgy!
Fucking moron still thinks he's in some kind of jury, throwing his assessments left and right lol.
Nah. I just know your type. And it sparks joy that it annoyed you to be called out on your BS. Funny you think this is "some kind of jury", and not basic knowledge you got wrong, while being rude AF to someone trying to educate you. Fix your attitude. It's shit.
Who do you think you are to educate anyone? Fix your attitude. It's shit.
Couldn't come up with anything original? Tsk-tsk. Plus, I wasn't the one who went out of their way to explain the basic shit you got wrong. ... recurring theme this.
You literally wrote you were educating me. Are you stupid?
