- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts

And? Oh look at me I bought the best product in it's price class, I'm a niche user or something.
Year of the Linux desktop 2024.
FTFY
NVidia being the worst choice for Linux is hardly news.

Valve invests billions of dollars and loses money on 4M decks and everyone is screaming success π€·ββοΈ
EA resold more copies of Skyrim on switch.
You're the one who bought the wrong tool (NVidia GPU) for the job. Blame nobody but yourself. Intel and AMD is fine since at least 15 years.
No, I didn't. I have a faster GPU at a lower price with my timing and I can play every single one of my games. It's easy and I don't have to do shit. I don't have to make sure drm doesn't work and I don't have to find some utility it script to get DPI resolution scaling working. You're just pouty because Linux isn't a good solution for a large chunk of users.
If it weren't Nvidia's fault, like, as in they don't support linux on purpose "because fuck you, you do not matter, you'll use the OS we choose and like it," maybe you'd have a point. They could do it, easily, but they don't because they do not care about their users.
Doesn't matter to the users. Yeah it sucks. Doesn't change the hurdles it adds.
Doesn't change the fact that those hurdles are caused by nvidia on purpose and they could fix it tomorrow if they wanted, either. Don't be mad at linux about falling victim to it, be mad at nvidia for doing it. That matters to the users, even if they falsely blame linux about it.
