I am so happy that Windows has become such shit that it made me, one of the most "lazy" people I know, switch to Linux. I hope they crash and burn but our society has done a good job not educating people on the tech they use every day. Tech illiterates don't really have options do they.
If only Linux wasn't shit when it came to DX12 on Nvidia gpu.
I mean yeah gamers still will have a harder time because some games won't work but that is dodgeable with dual boot, virtual machines or a dedicated gaming PC where windows slop can do less harm.
If only Nvidia wasn't shit when it came to linux support*
Don't post your cries to random forums that can do nothing about it, send them directly to Nvidia at info@nvidia.com or call 1-408-486-2000 and tell them you're a loyal customer who wants linux support or you'll go to AMD who does it well. The more that do that the more likely you'll actually get support for your hardware.
I just sent Nvida a ten page essay on why they should support linux
Good! They're the only ones who can fix it, so might as well direct your energy towards it instead of screaming into the void-forum.
