The people who block HDMI for Linux are also the people who make TVs and other media stuff. So you may not be able to use displayport or hdmi just because some rich people decided so to make more profit.

This is what I said the other day about this issue. Good luck finding a decent tv with display port! Those fuckers are rare and expensive!

They are called monitors, and yeah expensive but then you don’t get a “Smart TV” with tracking and bullshit.

Nor do you get TV tuners. While most geeks probably couldn’t care less, any associated family do prefer to watch Great British Bake-off as it airs.

I would use an Apple TV or a Chromecast in that case. Most TV providers that I know offer their own mediabox anyway, so no need for TV Tuners anymore.
