There is hope at least. Currently ROCm is pretty terrible.

    If AMD wanted to get real serious real fast about rapidly improving drivers, could releasing Radeon driver source code under AGPLv3 help get mass development and fixes for drivers, while at the same time due to the license make the code untouchable for nVidia?

      Both RadV and RadeonSI (both part of Mesa) are better than their Radeon driver these days. They should just abandon that unnecessary kludge and fully focus on the open-source drivers.

    If they could just help big distros package binaries that’d be great. I was unable to use their handy dandy installer to install on Debian 11 a couple of months ago, been meaning to try again now Debian 12 is available.
