Original question by @ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world

I never really see hardware lacking Linux support mentioned, which got me caught by surprise when a computer with a Broadcom network card couldn’t use the card. What other hardware don’t work with Linux?

    Depends on what you mean by “hardware”. Most microcontrollers can’t. There are a bunch of ancient processor architectures that modern Linux doesn’t support either, and more esoteric setups that no one has bothered to port Linux to.
