You realise that not having access to stable drivers is a performance issue because it means games don't run properly or at all?
"The issue isn't my bike, it's the bent wheels on it!"
Wow you're *incredibly* smart.I certainly am smarter than the people who base their conclusion of an OS performance being better than another OS' on a test made on a single hardware setup.
It's also very funny that when people say they have a hard time making games run on Linux and they mention that they have an Nvidia GPU the first reaction is "Oh yeah, that's why" and then they're told to try whatever voodoo magic is in season at the moment to make it run properly but you're here saying "Oh no, there's no problem in game!" Yeah, because the problem is actually loading the game inthe first place so there can't be any issues IN it if you can't get in!
I don't know why you're not upset that they present it as a fact when they only tested on one machine with AMD hardware to come to a general conclusion as if it applied to all hardware.
You don't need to defend some random OS.
I don't see the issue with testing it using fixed hardware, they made that clear in the article.
I'm not defending some random OS, the facts presented speak for themselves. Stop projecting.
Top comment in that chain explain exactly what the issue is.
