It worked for me. I was convinced to switch to Linux after joining Lemmy and I’m blown away every day at how much better it works. It’s just faster, smoother, and even has better compatibility with my monitor.
What do operating systems have to do with monitor compatibility? I thought that you just needed a working video output and HDMI/DisplayPort/etc did the rest.
I’m using a Samsung Odyssey Ark and use PIP or PBP to have my desktop and work laptop displayed together. No matter what I try, text becomes illegible on Windows in this mode, but it works flawlessly in Linux.
Anecdotally, I have personally encountered a bug where my Linux system couldn’t handle the EDID from the monitor — so that particular model of monitor didn’t function with Linux despite it working fine on Windows.
