I have been told (but not confirmed) that is mandated by the HDMI mob. If you want HDMI on your TV, it cannot also have DP.
Which is kind of funny. At least, to my mind this has associated HDMI-only with the budget option (TVs), and DP with the premium tier (monitors).
If you purpose build a Linux gaming PC, would you lean more towards AMD GPUs over Nvidia?
AMD does a lot of work to ensure their support for Linux is first-class. With the kernel now natively supporting their systems, you can expect good support. It's earned them some good will over Nvidia which has gotten better recently with the rise of AI, but still requires users to jump through a couple of hoops due to their attempts to protect their IP.

I think this gets overblown a bit. AMD is better, but Nvidia can work. There's plenty of valid reasons to put in the extra effort and go with Nvidia.
I hope this is right, because "you have to use AMD GPU" is not what people want to hear when building a PC.

That's exactly the kind of flashy, gaming-forward distro I was drawn to as a teenager. Good times :)
I sometimes wonder if my modern machines could run Sabayon's DE with high performance.
Sabayon had some loveliness beyond that surface level, too. If the distro still existed (MocaccinoOS is a thing nowadays, but it's a completely different base), I'd probably spin it up out of nostalgia.
