I do not buy products based on company morals.

You don't, but the comment you replied to said:

but I’m not excited about Nvidia right now and there isn’t a company on the planet that seems to want to offer me an alternative

Which is pretty clearly about the moral implications of choosing a Nvidia card vs the lack of any real alternatives (and AMD itself being no better than Nvidia).

If you have no moral qualms about it, there's near zero reason to go AMD or Intel anyway. Nvidia drivers start working fine on Linux once you use a mainstream distro and avoid the KDE+Wayland combo. Performance tends to be better for the same money and you get CUDA.
