You are not wrong, buy it is an easy fix, just install Linux and take back your computer! You might loose a little comfort initially but that will soon come back.
- tremon 6y agoPersonally, I've also removed Linux from my hardware because there's too much black magic going on with dbus/logind (quick question: what's the permission model used for seat management and where do I configure it?). I've gone back to running OpenBSD/FreeBSD on the hardware and relegating Linux to VMs only, with all the hardware pains that used to plague Linux 15 years ago. But at least my OS is predictable and reliable again, and doesn't patronize me.
- zarkov99 6y agoI think the days of understanding your stack top to bottom are gone, unfortunately, but at least with Linux I am not being spied on, bullied into installing updates I do not want, prevented from installing things I do want, and in general being treated as cattle.
- account42 6y agoLinux doesn't require you to use dbus/logind though so it seems weird to throw out the kernel (including the HW support you mentioned) just to move to a different userspace.
