Debian is for people who have shit to get done and don't care about a neon colored wallpaper, mostly don't have a wallpaper at all.

Default wallpaper FTW

It's a lot harder to get Nvidia drivers working on Debian than any other distro I've tried including Arch. Every issue besides that one I've ever had in Debian, I was able to fix.

How so? If you have non-free enabled, shouldn't apt install nvidia-driver work?

I'm about to get a chance to try it on a different pc (M5A am3 with a Titan X), but on a x79 motherboard and a 1080ti, that doesn't work. After installing that, I do get the Nvidia x server but when I open the program, it's an empty window and something is obviously broken. I installed Arch on the same pc and it was even easier to get Nvidia drivers working than on Ubuntu.
