    I didn’t know amd is local only, that’s amazing. Another huge reason to go for amd.

    And yeah, Pluton… I don’t use windows anymore and I encourage everyone to switch to Linux. But only a few people care about their privacy and not being tracked.

      It used to be a major pro-AMD reason for me too, but it’s become irrelevant since pluton. Weird thing is, pluton was announced with much fanfare for Ryzen 6000, but I’ve not heard about it since.
