Totally in agreement. I'll give Linux another try on my rMBP to see if the HiDPI issues have been resolved yet. A quick search shows that MySQL Workbench still has issues:

If that's the only software I use that has problems I can probably deal with that though.

The annoying part with Linux on rMBP's for me isn't the display - it's the fact that my palm rests on the trackpad and causes all kinds of issues that macOS is immune to.

Does Linux not support palm detection on MBP touchpads, like it does on regular Synaptics touchpads?

Does your rMBP come with a discrete GPU?
