I have a fairly "bleeding edge" laptop with an RTX3000 series GPU and an AMD CPU/APU and I have been surprised at how well it runs on Linux.

Not only is my battery life consistently better but it handles the GPU switching flawlessly and performance in games is also consistently noticeably better than what I experienced running Windows on the same hardware.

Even in just the last year or two the advancements in Linux support have been downright incredible! (At least in my personal experience)

Of course I'm using Nvidia's proprietary drivers, but I was in Windows too and my experience has only improved by switching to Linux.

  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
