Ya know ...

If i had the productive muscle of Elon Musk,
I would venture to find a way to manifest the hardware,
similar to a macbook pro, but run any kind of Linux
on it as you please ...

maybe its time for the peeps to learn how to use it
./man creativity

cut the chain to the old apple tree,
let us run creatively free ..

Toolbox X,
perhaps, something to that effect ...

maybe a boring idea,

just sayin.

Most Linux distributions already run on MOST laptop platforms, incl the Apple Macbook. Unless you have a very specific application that runs on Windows/MacOS or you have some employment requirement, EVERYBODY would benefit from running a Linux distribution. Very usable even on old hardware.

absolutely,

I think, in my quick post i was perhaps a little vague,

The idea would be to do something active, like right now, not in 25 years, around the 'compositor', maybe take a hard look at Vulkan.

This would allow people to use a stable baseline & up to date hardware platform (the example of the mac-book pro type hrdwr)

with a FULLY functional protocol, so that we could use ANY Linux,
not just being bottle necked into Ubuntu that they have been teaching all the new guys on over the last few years ..

1. base line hardware,
2. fully functional rendering/compositor etc
(on par if not better than dx12)

This should give people the 'no OS lock in' ability to run (fully functional) software same as windows, across any Linux.

I am not talking about a quick hack.
Its been a pipe dream for Linux heads for years,

This concept (not new) would unchain not only apple tree, but also windows domination and limitation of choice.

Distros and drivers for every type of hardware have come a LONG way since I first stumbled through a slackware installation in the early 90s. Nowadays I have never failed to install the limited Debian based distros I have tried on ANY hardware. From HP, Lenovo and other laptops through to no-name chinese netbooks they have ALL built successfully from a standard install image and internet connection.

oh i hear ya,

kinda miss the days of having to compile kernels on the install ..
kek (sarcasm)

I totally agree with what you are pointing towards.
with the native network or code subjects dev'ing within Linux things works great, but when you try and do anything with media and film, it falls short, hardcore.

Try and use UE5 for film dev as example ..
It's clunky and bad, granted in all fairness,
50% software code fail / 50% the issues i pointed towards previously. ;P

i dunno after 25 + years you'd think we would,
or someone would have gotten it together by now.

I love Linux to death,
but, if i have to stop and think about IF it will work,
then its not quite there yet.

maybe I'm just bitching,
of late i guess i have grown tired,
of half arsed efforts of change.
it's to slow.
