Fuck displayport! it's open source or nothing.
You want stupid apple bullshit? Because this is how you get stupid apple bullshit.
New HDMI is fine. Again, fuck displayport.
Are you a troll or just stupid? (And I ask that sincerely). HDMI is a proprietary licensed specification.
DisplayPort is royalty free and has a larger consortium backing the implementation.
It's not quite fully open though https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DisplayPort
That doesn't change how it's, hm, questionable to prefer HDMI on the basis of "open source or nothing" compared to DisplayPort, but still.
What ever DisplayPort do, HDMI do more badly. HDMI also requires Annual Fee to get document now (since 2021, before that the document was public available). And this is not the worst thing, the worst thing is the HDMI forum disallow anyone open source a driver which support HDMI 2.1 or higher.
