And? Oh look at me I bought the best product in it's price class, I'm a niche user or something.
Year of the Linux desktop 2024.
FTFY
NVidia being the worst choice for Linux is hardly news.
https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/9/23954205/valve-steam-deck-multiple-millions 🤷
Valve invests billions of dollars and loses money on 4M decks and everyone is screaming success 🤷♂️
EA resold more copies of Skyrim on switch.
You're the one who bought the wrong tool (NVidia GPU) for the job. Blame nobody but yourself. Intel and AMD is fine since at least 15 years.
No, I didn't. I have a faster GPU at a lower price with my timing and I can play every single one of my games. It's easy and I don't have to do shit. I don't have to make sure drm doesn't work and I don't have to find some utility it script to get DPI resolution scaling working. You're just pouty because Linux isn't a good solution for a large chunk of users.
If it weren't Nvidia's fault, like, as in they don't support linux on purpose "because fuck you, you do not matter, you'll use the OS we choose and like it," maybe you'd have a point. They could do it, easily, but they don't because they do not care about their users.
Doesn't matter to the users. Yeah it sucks. Doesn't change the hurdles it adds.
Doesn't change the fact that those hurdles are caused by nvidia on purpose and they could fix it tomorrow if they wanted, either. Don't be mad at linux about falling victim to it, be mad at nvidia for doing it. That matters to the users, even if they falsely blame linux about it.
Completely ignoring the thread 🤣👌👍🤷♂️
Oh sorry I thought you were an adult, my mistake.
You're the one angry and completely ignoring the thread 🤷♂️ raging over the popularity of Windows making up excuses for third parties that don't make a difference for end users.
Windows is popular. It will be popular until Linux desktop gets its shit together and gets rid of it's compatibility issues.
Well, if you're complaining about how nvidia doesn't support linux, seems like it matters to their customers to me. Stop your crying about it then if you don't care so bad.
FTFY chump.
Not complaining. I use Windows for games. I don't deal with any of that right now. I'm stating reality. Again, you're off thread and just looking for an argument. Some how mad that I pointed out most users won't change a thing because of Linux challenges. Then starting on some off topic rant about Nvidia being assholes.
Yes they are assholes. It doesn't change a thing and this enrages you.
I'm off thread? I'm directly responding to your comment, so you're off thread then. Guess you should stop commenting "off thread" lol.
By "linux challenges," you mean "nvidia challenges." Again it is nvidia's fault whether you accept that or not. You're complaining about problems with nvidia and pretending they're problems with linux, I'm simply trying to inform you that you incorrectly place the blame on the wrong party, you in turn are being obtuse, this is a you problem lol.
"The users" meaning "the company nvidia?" Because they're the only ones that need to change anything to support linux, linux users just use AMD or Intel, or one of the workarounds to get nvidia supported by the hacked together drivers that "the users" have made. It is nvidia themselves that prevent their hardware from running well on linux.
I'm not enraged by nvidia, I just don't give them money, I use their competitors. I'm not even enraged by stupid people putting blame on linux or "the users" for something done by their precious god-company and then doubling down on being too stupid to understand why anyone would have the audacity to point out why you were wrong and misplace your blame, I'm not enraged at all, I'm laughing at you.
