Wondering if my next upgrade should be an OLED screen or not. It looks amazing, but how is the current compatability with Linux these days? Anyone with one of these sexy screens that would like to share their experiences?

  • What screen do you have?
  • TV or Monitor Screen?
  • Do you have multiple screens?
  • What brand / model is recommended?

Lemmy know! 🌻

    This may be controversial, and may also be totally wrong (I’m no display expert), but I have a 55” Hisense U8K QLED and am still legitimately shocked at how black the blacks are. I can’t even tell if the screen is on or off if it’s just showing my black background. No light bleed or blooming, and inky rich blacks with incredibly smooth gradients. This screen convinced me that I’ll never need to shell out for an OLED.

    Edit: in case you’re curious, I use it as the third screen in my PC setup, running at 144hz. It’s also my first experience with high refresh rates, and it has been a joy. Oh and the nits on this thing are something else. Ever been blinded by a sunrise in 4K HDR? It’s awesome.
