Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

    A driver can absolutely freeze the entire computer.

    That said it’s not really likely to be Nvidia since so many people are using that one without issues.

    Linux people just like to hate on Nvidia and blame them for every possible issue because they’re not open source.

      The only actual Nvidia problem iv seen in 5 years is that monster hunter wild is broken on their newer drivers only on 5000 series cards because of nvidia’s own choices.

      Which is also broken on windows. So it’s just a Nvidia problem.
