        Would a lot of people wanting to use the hardware but the drivers sucking be indicative of a good company or a bad company?

          As a quality metric, “bad company”. If you can differentiate between hardware product and drivers, you can separate those metrics. But usually, and for most people, using the product also means using their drivers.

          A bad company. Because they should be delivering a holistic product. But their hardware side knows their shit at least.

    Nice.

    Maybe I should start one so that Rustdesk / anydesk connections from Debian 12 don’t scroll uncontrollably for a second after I remove my two fingers or edge scroll finger from my track pad.

    Trying various things like turning off acceleration, inertia, fiddling with xinput etc, to no avail.
