Wondering if my next upgrade should be an OLED screen or not. It looks amazing, but how is the current compatability with Linux these days? Anyone with one of these sexy screens that would like to share their experiences?

  • What screen do you have?
  • TV or Monitor Screen?
  • Do you have multiple screens?
  • What brand / model is recommended?

I have been using my LG OLED TV as my gaming monitor as well for about 2 years now. Haven't had any issues with burn in on mine. I run the pixel refresh utility once every few months, and typically don't play a game for more than a 3~4 hour stretch of time, so I think I get enough screen variety that it hasn't been an issue.

If you haven't run the Pixel refresher tool, try giving that a go for a few hours and see if it helps with your burn in. It could just be 'stuck' and not actually burnt.

As far as the LG, I mainly picked it for the VRR and 4k120 HDR support. Games look great, and It's also my main TV for movies, which also look great.
