I don't like it either, I just love that image because it trolls insecure users. I wouldn't worry about that Recall feature too much, at the worst someone will figure out how to disable it for anyone who cares.

You'll definitely lose some cutting edge features of your GPU by switching but the raw horsepower will always be there. Plus, some of the anti-cheats for multiplayer games cannot work with Linux, possibly cutting you out of a desired game. All in all the proprietary Nvidia drivers work really well.
