Back when I switched to Linux, Nvidia worked much better than AMD cards, but everyone hates them for not providing open source drivers, understandably
- Comment on 'End of 10' to Windows 10 Users: The Environment Wants You to Use Linux 3 weeks ago:
In my experience, Nvidia drivers work just fine. They’re just proprietary, and once in a while they release a faulty driver (which you can just roll back ofc). Happened to me a couple of times over the past… 14 years, fuck

You can always check ProtonDB

What about EndeavourOS?
What about Arch?
- Comment on Microsoft's many Outlooks are confusing users and employees 2 months ago:
For some reason our business policy doesn’t allow us to use the web versions…
Ubuntu is very popular in businesses cus it’s Debian but with official enterprise support (I strongly dislike both though).
Luckily all my work is in WSL2 Arch terminal with tmux, so it’s bearable, but I miss my rice setup so much!
- Comment on Microsoft's many Outlooks are confusing users and employees 2 months ago:
Yes! I’m so close to being able to switch the office PC to Linux. I only really use Outlook and Teams, everything else is in a terminal.
Now to convince Security that I don’t need their intrusive logging and scanning crap…
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 months ago:
I almost exclusively used both through Android with Chromecast, and I must say, I’ve had way more trouble with Emby than Plex.
Also on smart TVs, the Plex apps just have way fewer issues in my experience.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 2 months ago:
I know there are a lot of bots on reddit nowadays, but I blame the bandwagoning bs more. It has just gotten worse and worse over the past 10 years.

- Comment on Gaming chat platform Discord in early talks with banks about public listing 2 months ago:
Also proprietary and requires a “Gamer License” to host servers for more than 32 users.
Mumble is, and has always been, the king of voice chat apps and is completely FOSS. Also it works a lot better.
- Comment on Gaming chat platform Discord in early talks with banks about public listing 2 months ago:
I find it funny that people are picking another proprietary piece of crap that, by the way, also requires a license to host servers with more than 32 users.
- Comment on Gaming chat platform Discord in early talks with banks about public listing 2 months ago:
Absolutely choosing Mumble over TeamSpeak.

I totally agree, except also for gaming.
Compared to alternatives, there are often lags and complete disruptions, latency is horrible, bitrate is a paid feature, and for large groups of voice channels (like managing a 500 player operation in Eve), features are still lacking.
Also security is a joke. In Mumble, you can manage (certificate based!) permissions on every level imaginable.
They spend their time on making silly themes and Nitro features nobody cares about.
- Comment on Gaming chat platform Discord in early talks with banks about public listing 2 months ago:
I completely disagree with this and have been for years.
It has often had connectivity issues, big lags, higher latencies and lower bitrates than Mumble or even TeamSpeak.
It’s super bloated, they churn out useless “features” so fast that it keeps making it use more resources and makes everything slower.
Until recently, being in voice call with more than 3-4 people made all my 16 cores attempt self destruction.
It is a freemium piece of bloatware.
