I was considering eventually moving to Linux.
Now I'll wait till my current system gets an upgrade
It's really not that bad, especially if you pick a distro like Pop that has the drivers bundled so you don't even need to touch it
LOL, this is a joke, on most popular distro it is quite easy, on ubuntu and mint, it is just clicking a check box and set a password for secureboot.
On fedora is clicking a button, and run a single line of command.
Many distro has nvidia images that don't need any configuration, like popOS, ublue derivates, and vanilla OS etc.
I have been using my old GTX1060 on ublue for couple years now.
I think the complains are most about distro developers needs to do extra work, just because nvidia refuse to play nicely with open source, like everyone else did.
