Nvidia Fuck You! (Linus Torvalds) My thoughts exactly
Old but gold. posting for anybody who hasn't seen this yet.

I recently realized, while dealing with some screen flickering with the most recent Nvidia drivers, that I had never used Linux without a Nvidia GPU. I’ve always had them in my computer so I always installed the driver. Lately I play mostly older games so I decided to remove the GPU and let my i9 sort out the graphics.
When I say it was a NIGHT AND DAY difference in overall quality I’m not kidding. Everything was buttery smooth and any lingering thoughts of missing Windows faded away. Honestly felt like I bought a new computer.
Now I’ve decided to sell my Nvidia GPU on eBay and either grab an AMD card or be bold and pick up an Intel Arc 750.
So in short, to echo Linus himself, fuck Nvidia.
I've only used one AMD card with Linux and it was so smooth I never thought about it. Lately I've been using nvidia for one year and I'm losing my sanity with it. Switching back to AMD next week.
