I’m gonna get downvoted to oblivion for this…
I just got my new OLED and weirdly enough, upon booting it I saw something that I didn’t even think of till now. With the new OLED, the sub-pixel arrangement is slightly different than the LCD, and it’s causing white edge (specially on text) to have this green/magenta fringing. It’s extremely faint, and it’s not particular to the Steam Deck since I know of other OLED panels that have the same fringing. However I have heard zero mention of this and I have to say that although this matters close to nothing while playing videogames, it’s something I do see with subtitles.
With this out of the way, the screen looks amazing and I’m more than ready to sell and replace my LCD deck now. I hope the technology gets there where this isn’t an issue anymore!
They’re not. I have multiple Linux installations that have no Wayland installed and some don’t even have X installed. The OS which is usually called GNU/Linux is the Linux kernel plus a set of GNU tools that allows you to use the system. No Linux user who knows what they’re doing would call Wayland part of the OS.
That Linux users want to be different to the rest of the world isn’t a counterpoint.
Pendatry like this won’t get you anywhere!
If it’s SteamOS and im not talking to people very well versed, it’s part of the OS.
Yes they would, if the context is about “is it hardware or software that handles subpixel rendering”. Nobody is talking about the details of whatever is going on in the software.
