Sigh, guess I have to get serious about gaming on Linux then. I wonder if the nVidia drivers still locks up my boot sequence.
If you have an Nvidia GPU don't switch to Linux, especialy if it's a pre-Turing model. If you have a Turing+ GPU though wait for a year until NVK is actually usable, then look into it imo.
Or take a different plunge when you're ready for a GPU upgrade: get more bang for buck with an AMD card and do the switch to Linux at the same time.
That's the plan, I can't run Waydroid on the current hardware and that's a big bummer. I got the rig when Intel+nVidia had a large lead on AMD and it was primarily for Windows gaming. But it's a midrig at this point so the CPU would bottleneck. I'm hoping to come back to all AMD with a full upgrade at one point.
