The part in the OP that is influencing perception by disseminating negative and dubious information about AMD when AMDs actions are actually justified.

    when AMDs actions are actually justified.

    Yeah, this is the part we're disagreeing on, because so far I haven't seen a real justification for why the same app is fine on windows but not Linux and is only accessible on linux through a subscription. What part of Linux specifically costs them money that doesn't on windows?

    Also, just because you don't like the info doesn't make it dubious. And ironically, your defense of them is dubious by providing vague responses and unsupported accusations of spreading FUD.

    If anyone had any doubts, you've effectively admitted you're wrong. You can't even respond to basic questions about the "FUD" anyone is spreading, especially your own.

    Maybe try to shill in places that don't know how to ask basic follow up questions, you'll probably get farther.

    It would help if you provided more than unsourced claims and what amounts to telling me to do my own research to figure out your point. As is, I don't know what you believe past a general disagreement with basic points, only that you're apparently unable or unwilling to support it, so I have to assume you can't support it after multiple attempts at good faith discussion.

    So maybe actually explain why you see this as FUD, or I'm going to take that as confirmation you know your argument is wrong. At this point, I have to assume you're wasting time and just desperate to get the last word.
