How do you pick your hardware? (lemmy.world)

Currently on the market for new audio hardware, headset and mic. Gaming hardware manufacturers often come with their own software that doesn't run well on Linux.

How do you decide what hardware to buy and you can be sure it will work with your OS?

I am currently looking to get Bluetooth headphones but still am unsure about the mic solution, a fixed mic on the desk seems so uncomfortable and a clip-on mic often also comes with it's own software or Android app.

What audio setup does Lemmy use with their Linux setup?

There is horrible distortion too, I don't know what you want to say with that. I'm no "audiophile" with golden cables lol

    I think the point is that you can distinguish distortion, not whether distortion is good or bad.

    But that makes the initial claim just worthless?!

    Anyway, whatever 😁

    I'm not saying I agree with the initial claim. Just wanted to clarify what I thought the poster was saying. I'm basically deaf in one ear so I only have half a horse in this race anyway.
