Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I want people on Nvidia hardware. None of this AMD shit. I already know AMD works great on Linux
Running arch BTW with a 4080 figuring out how to install the drivers was fine. I run a 240hz 1440p with hdr no issues. Haven’t done a ton of gaming ran guardians of the galaxy because it was fairly new no issues. This is on kde, I have some issues with kde because my initial install I used cinnamon then swapped to kde its caused some instability going to do a reinstall sometime soon.
Ive been running Cachy on my rig with a 4080 Super and it works mint. With Cachy’s rolling releases I get all the driver updates asap so I have all this latest features.
No weird issues running games or software (incl hardware encoding on handbrake).
Hmu if you have any questions or want me to test something.
Huh! Well that is refreshing thank you.
Any reason why you’re not using bazite? That’s the gamer one that I hear the most about
At the time it was a toss up between Cachy and Nobara and I, luckily, picked Cachy. I’ve had a great experience with Cachy and haven’t had the urge to change.
Bazzite seemed more focused on handheld/controller based devices so it wasn’t really a contender for me.
Cachy is the #1 most viewed/active distro on https://distrowatch.com/ and has heaps of users so it feels well supported to me.
I’m a fan of the idea of rolling releases so I can get the latest and greatest more so than an atomic/immutable distro.
It really doesn’t matter which one you pick as your first distro, any well supported distro with good nvidia support will be sweet.
