And somehow every single time the problem was so easy to solve, but apparently crying about it is the better solution.

    Sadly people like this have been there at every corner when I talk about my issues/reasons for not switching (yet). I still want to, but also think this turns off a lot of people.

    That was also my guess certainly with an nvidia GPU. My next pc will be AMD based partially because I really want to make the step to Linux

      Yeah, depending on its age an NVIDIA GPU can be a non-starter. That said, I had a 2060 when I first transitioned to Linux last year and had no issues.

        Its a 3080 bought at release (its a bit newer than the rest of my pc). Was already afraid having an NVIDIA GPU was gonna mess it all up

          You might be interested in giving Nobara Linux a try. It has a built in automated NVIDIA driver manager that you can run on first boot.

            I’m not gonna put time in it anymore with this build tbh, I’m just waiting the few months until I’ve got my new build
