I can’t control my off-brand external monitor brightness connected from my laptop on w11, but I can just fine on Linux out of the box no fucking around needed

    Controlling the brightness of my (non-laptop) monitors from within windows was never a thing for me in all my decades using windows. I instantly gained this power on both my monitors as soon as I jumped ship. Windows truly is utter dogshit.

      Holy shit I didn’t even notice this, but you are 100% right. I used to have to fight with the built-in settings on monitors constantly and I haven’t pressed a button on any of my monitors except “power” since I switched to Linux…
