The last linux distro I tried was ubuntu 20.04. There was no GPU acceleration for my nvidia card out of the box. Installing the drivers caused X11/wayland/whateverthefuck to glitch out and I had to do terminal magic to get it to boot. Using some other variant or version of nvidia drivers caused Chrome to screw up compositing which would result in pure black sections out of the viewport during scrolling. My front panel microphone inputs weren't working, and multichannel audio playback was garbled. I couldn't turn on GSYNC on my monitor, and it flickered at 144hz. Most of my mouse buttons weren't working. My printer/scanner wasn't working. I couldn't play any of my games. Do I have to continue? I'm not interested in Linux apologetics: "That's because you're using nvidia / chrome / realtek." "That's because you're using XY distro, you should be using Arch/whatever". "That's because that game developer sucks, Source engine games work fine". "That's because Logitech..." I don't care.
