This seems utterly bizarre. It’s one thing to make a new firmware for PCs… But they really don’t care about Linux or Windows? Or do they expect each to cave

This seems utterly bizarre.
It’s one thing to make a new firmware for PCs…
But they really don’t care about Linux or Windows? Or do they expect each to cave and support their thing because they make the world’s crap?
They simply could have written their own UEFI implementation if they so desired…
This feels more like a flex to the rest of the world than anything useful.

- estimator7292 1y agoLinux is not a "US product" what the hell are you even talking about?
- BobbyTables2 1y agoYou mean the thing started by a Swedish guy living in Finland?
- lproven 1y agoAside from the previous 2 comments refuting this for Linux, I'd point out the multiple Chinese Linux distros that have been around for years now. Deepin/Uniontech UOS -- based on Debian. It has its own desktop environment, DDE, available on some Western distros and pretty good. Kylin/OpenKylin/Ubuntu Kylin -- based on Ubuntu. Again, its own desktop, UKUI, also available on Ubuntu itself and a few other distros. EulerOS/OpenEuler -- based on CentOS Linux, and one of only 2 distros to have held official UNIX™ certification. The other being Inspur K/UX, also Chinese I think.
