Source: 🤷‍♂️ trust me bro

Dunno what else to tell ya cause they are moving to open source, but hey googles free if you want to find out for yourself

4% of US alone is 12 million people.

If even 25% of them decide hardware purchases based on driver support, 3 million sales isn’t ignorable.

(The number of PCs sold globally per year is similarly 300,000,000, so even then theyd lose out on 12 million potential sales YEARLY)

The market is also pretty shit post-covid, so I’m sure every hardware company is dying for a way to boost sales metrics.

With the linux server market share and recent ai boom, theyd have to be more than just blind deaf and dumb to not release linux drivers.

Maybe this was true back in like the early 2000’s?
