“I hate searching for drivers”
???
Of all the Linux nitpicks, you chose the one wrong answer.
Linux is way better with automatically installing drivers than Windows. Unless you’re using Nvidia, it’s literally in the kernel.
Linux has the issue of lacking in enterprise media software like Microsoft Office and Adobe Products. The former of which has long since become a non-issue. Adobe however persists. And some games will never run so long as the devs hold them hostage on anti-proton anticheat varients.
And most people use Nvidia. Don't act like it's a small number.
Lmao. "Unless you're in the majority of PC gamers then it's not a problem" Linux users I swear
Pretty much every distro offers an easy way to install nvidia drivers.
It's the peripherals that really need drivers. I remember having to install digimend drivers for my friend's graphics tablet for example. That said, it wasn't supported well on Windows either and performed better on my Linux setup than on Windows once I did find out about the digimend drivers.
Driver troubles for peripherals aren't uncommon in Windows either. Don't get me started on printers. Somehow, printers and scanners have always been plug and play for me on Linux, contrary to what I often hear.
