Nvidia hasn't been an issue for like 10 years.

It's super easy to install either the open or proprietary nvidia drivers on most distros nowadays.

And KDE with Wayland works great on nvidia GPUs.

Stopn taking. There are regular NVidia issues. I don't even get reliable HDMI handshakes and HDMI passthrough doesn't work.

You got an abnormal issue, and I would help you troubleshoot if you'd like.

This was kind but not the point. I spend 40 hours a week contributing and fixing shit (Devops+SE work) I can deal with an HDMI handshake failing because fuck Windows and I've done lfs ages ago. It's not abnormal, this is copium.

Most users, especially non technical are not going to deal with this bullshit.
