    And most people use Nvidia. Don’t act like it’s a small number.

        Pretty much every distro offers an easy way to install nvidia drivers.

        It’s the peripherals that really need drivers. I remember having to install digimend drivers for my friend’s graphics tablet for example. That said, it wasn’t supported well on Windows either and performed better on my Linux setup than on Windows once I did find out about the digimend drivers.

        Driver troubles for peripherals aren’t uncommon in Windows either. Don’t get me started on printers. Somehow, printers and scanners have always been plug and play for me on Linux, contrary to what I often hear.

        I run Nvida and Linux pretty regularly. It takes an extra step, but if you aren’t using a card at, basically, release it should be fine. 🤷‍♂️

      They didn’t imply that little people were using Nvidia GPUs, he is referring to the fact that you do like…2 extra clicks or so to install Nvidia’s drivers? You don’t even need to open a web browser!
