5 months agoWhat you say is especially true for laptops, those have the highest chance of having weird non-standard components that give a lot of problems on Linux.
Much easier on desktops, especially if you build your own, you get to choose which components go into it.
Nvidia is shit on laptops but it’s fine on desktops.
I’ve been using Linux for over 20 years, always had Nvidia on my self-built desktops, my experience has always been flawless, I just have to install proprietary drivers.
My experience with laptops has been hit and miss, until I learned to buy laptops “full Intel only”, on those everything works out of the box.
They’re destroying the environment more than ever before, they’re pushing companies to replace workers with AI making people lose their jobs, they’re scraping everything on the internet without any regard for copyright laws, they’re screwing hardware market so consumers can’t afford decent PCs anymore.
And they expect us to be happy about it?
