I've been using NVIDIA cards on Linux for 20 years... I don't get this

I tried it for 2 years. After having a lot of weird issues I finally upgraded to an AMD card and so many of those issues went away. Firstly I can install updates without worrying about breaking games or random graphical things. AMD has been way more solid.

AMD is way better than NVIDIA

Weeelll not for long. Open kernel module works like a charm for me. Wayland support is now actively worked on and is already functional for the most part. HDMI 2.1 was always supported while AMD would not be able to. HDR and 10 bit support also dropped just now.

The biggest difference is that amd drivers are open source
