From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Fedora ain't any better if trust issues are relevant.
In general, I don't think you'll find any distro running Nvidia the same as Windows. I had Fedora 41 a couple of months ago and flickering issues with my Gtx1050. No matter what drivers I tried, and I was debugging for a month, spent 50 hours on it with no solution.
After that tried Tumbleweed Slowroll, and it was a bit better. In the end, bought a new PC because it was time. Now running with AMD because I was told they have less issues than Nvidia. Turned out to be true in my case.
I wanted to run Tumbleweed with KDE so I adapted hardware specs to make it work.
