Re: Preliminary hardware support status report - one week before the release of Debian 11
The report is now available in Debian Salsa: https://salsa.debian.org/linuxhw/TestCoverage/-/tree/main/Dist/Debian_11

To achieve this, I compared it with the similar report for Debian 10 [2] in order to find significant discrepancies. Good news that we've covered all hardware classes tested on Debian 10 and differences in statistical indicators are relatively small. Particularly, I don't see any noticeable regression in use of AMD or NVIDIA graphics cards [3]. Either affected graphics cards are rare or people do not have problems with installing additional firmware packages.
