Nvidia is FINE on Linux. There’s just a couple extra steps.

All of these Nvidia GPUs being bought for all this AI bullshit? Running Linux. Every stupid AI company runs Nvidia right now, and it’s on Linux, so don’t worry.

Pick a mainstream distro, lookup the steps for installing the drivers and blacklisting the Nouveau drivers which sometimes take first dibs, and you’re golden. Few commands at best.

AMD is just simpler because you don’t have to manage the drivers, but it’s really not a big deal. It’s very easily handled.

I had to fiddle with it for a while when I moved my main machine over to Linux a few months ago, but that’s mostly on me because I chose Arch & Hyprland.

If I had gone with a mainstream distro with a “nvidia” variant, it would have likely just worked out of the gate.

Hell, if you had gone from an arch derived distro like EndeavourOS and just clicked the nvidia option. It would have been solved.
