Hi, Apple officially deprecated OpenGL and OpenGL ES back in macOS 10.14 (Mojave) in 2018 and iOS 12, sunsetting native support in favor of Metal. And then in the Windows and Linux world, for surface management, there is Wayland Compositor. But new GPUs that share system memory, also help here. Open-Source Drivers (amdgpu & mesa): Unlike NVIDIA's historical proprietary hurdles, AMD's graphics drivers are fully open-source and built directly into the Linux kernel and Mesa. Native GBM Support: AMD's driver stack natively and cleanly implements GBM (Generic Buffer Management) and DRM/KMS, which is the exact standard modern Wayland compositors (like GNOME/Mutter, KDE/KWin, Sway, and Hyprland) rely on to allocate buffers and manage displays. Unified Memory (APU Advantage): Because an AMD APU shares system RAM between the CPU and the integrated GPU, zero-copy buffer sharing under Wayland is exceptionally efficient.
