From the post: "Gamers using AMD RX Vega and RX 500 series graphics cards are facing uncertainty surrounding AMD’s driver support. In September, these cards were moved from the main branch to a separate package in the Windows driver release. Since then, despite two updates to the official branch, drivers for Polaris and Vega remain unchanged. AMD has officially confirmed the discontinuation of support for Vega and Polaris architectures in their AMDVLK open source driver on Linux (AMD GPU Open team). The changelog for the Q4 release confirms that GFX8 and GFX9 architectures, which encompass Vega and Polaris, are no longer supported. Gamers can still find these architectures in AMDGPU kernels and community-maintained Mesa RADV drivers, notes Phoronix."

Good thing I use Mesa then. My little RX570 still chugs along nicely, don't have any intention to replace it for a few more years
