  Yep, choice is nice, but everyone and their uncle rolling out distros is excessive as all fuck. Especially when there is precious little that isnt ultimately, deep down, just another flavor of Debian, Arch or Fedora.

      They also usually stay true to their car brand.

      So the choice has been narrowed down to their house brand and the current/last year model.

      So much choices… /s

    This is one of the coolest things about Universal Blue OSs like Bazzite. You can very easily roll your own custom OS based off of one of their images. And it’s all automated.

    I feel like that’s the best of both worlds. Extreme customizability and standardization.

  Thats not actually a problem. Every other OS has that problem.

  Mac will never get 100% market share because there will always be people that hate their workflow. Linux can offer a tailored version to everyone’s liking.

      There are versions that ship with the proprietary nvidia driver. The reason people have issues is the distros shipping the open version due to philosophy or distros shipping the open version for compatibility reasons.

      Luckily NVidia is rather selling their GPUs to AI datacenters than to home consumers.
