AMD is a better decision, but my nVidia works great with Linux, but I'm on OpenSUSE and nVidia hosts their own OpenSUSE drivers so it works out of the get go once you add the nVidia repo
I had an nvidia 660 GT back in 2013, it was a pain in the arse being on a leading edge distro, used to break xorg for a couple of months every time there was an xorg release (which admittedly are really rare these days since its in sunset mode). Buying an amd was the best hardware decision, no hassles and I've been on Wayland since Fedora 35.
A lot has changed in a decade.
yeah no, I dont want to be fucking with my machine just because I want to run a modern display server. I want my driver as part of my system. Until NV can get out of their own way and match the AMD experience (or even intel), not interested
