Zanzibart, forgive me...
ah turns out GPD Win 3 sucks with Linux too
Why, GPD? Why?

I am listening...
@LukeAlmighty you can probably ask @quad about his experience. I'm talking from what I did read on forums 
@newt @LukeAlmighty The GPD Win 3 works rather well with Linux. If you need resources I have a git repo for it: https://gitea.quad.moe/quad/win3-resources
The main issue is that Intel Xe drivers are immature and buggy, but that's a problem on both Linux and Windows.
My recent rants are about Linux and eGPUs not working well together, I don't think that issue is specific to my GPD Win 3

@quad @LukeAlmighty the problem about Linux and eGPU is Linux still doesn't have PCIe hotplug supported. There's a series of patches in LKML, but nobody knows how to test them thoroughly and it's too scary to just merge them on faith 
@newt @LukeAlmighty Nah that works perfectly fine. Gnome on Wayland even handles it pretty well with GPUs most of the time.
The issue I was having is that my eGPU won't run at its full speed.
Although there's still plenty of issues. Like how Xorg is mostly guaranteed to crash if you unplug a GPU

@quad @LukeAlmighty fortunately, this isn't my case. If I ever buy this thing, it will be for handheld gaming on the go 
@LukeAlmighty @newt Unfortunately all specialized devices are from china these days.
One of the reason I bought the GPD Win 3 was because the company is more reputable than the Aya Neo.
Although had I know the OneXPlayer existed at the time, I probably would've gone for that one instead. The Win 3 is a bit small for my taste and the OneXPlayer doesn't have the same issues as the Aya Neo

Also, those weird quirks like vertical display apply.
