I’m just glad that AMD got their shit together at about the same time Nvidia went downhill. It used to be that you needed to get an Nvidia card to get decent Linux support since, even though its drivers were closed-source, at least they worked at a time when AMD’s Linux drivers were absolute garbage. Imagine if things had stayed that way on the AMD side while Nvidia went on its current trajectory; Linux users would be completely out of luck.
Everything was running fine on Ubuntu for months until an update. Now it just crashes, trying to load.
Turns out Linux doesn’t play well with NVIDIA.
Oh, trust me, we know.
