Why does everyone always complain about Nvidia support on Linux? I've been using Nvidia GPUs on Ubuntu and Debian for years and it has never required any more effort than 'sudo apt install nvidia-driver'.
Because they're notoriously fickle and bug/breakage-prone.
I don't know, I don't find Linux folks very fickle. Seems like they have the opposite problem more often than not.
I'm referring to Nvidia's dogshit Linux drivers.
It’s not difficult to install the drivers. I recently had to swap out my 3090 for an AMD card because Wayland just crashes and works poorly with Nvidia.
You should probably rephrase that to say Nvidia crashes and works poorly with Wayland.
Saying Wayland works badly with Nvidia is a bit like saying Linux doesn't support Photoshop.
