It only saves your sanity if you have a full AMD build. Otherwise, you better be an IT pro or have the time and inclination to do a lot of learning. Nvidia drivers are notoriously problematic with Linux

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.

Not anymore. I'd say there has been massive improvements in the last 3-5 years for Nvidia. This was one of the main reasons I didn't swap over sooner.

Guess stop this nonsense. There are plenty of Nvidia issues.

What nonsense? I've used nvidia since the early 2000s. There are no more issues than AMD right now.
