I do not really have a body for this. I was not aware that this is a thing and still feel like this is bs, but maybe there is an actual explanation for HDMI Forum's decision that I am missing.

AMD should remove the HDMI port from all of their GPUs as a nice F.U. to the HDMI forum. They shouldn't be paying the licensing fees if they are not allowed to make full use of the hardware.

For now, but DP and specially DP over USB-C is becoming gradually more popular for computer hardware, someone paying 400 euros for a GPU doesn't mind paying 10 bucks extra on an adapter if they have an HDMI monitor. But most monitors nowadays come with DP anyway.

The problem is not with monitors, but rather TVs, which are not using DP (almost?) at all
