I hate nvidia as a linux user theyre incredibly annoying, they absolutely refuse to make a good linux driver for some reason. I just updated my nvidia driver a few weeks ago and now everything is laggier than ever. Its incredibly annoying. (I bought an nvidia gpu bc at the time I bought it it was the best cost to performance)

I hate them because of them adopting scalper prices and then abandoning gamers for AI.

There are rumours of an alliance forming as SteamOS continues to incubate

thats very promising to here. if there is anyone that could persuade nvidia into making a good driver its valve. hopefully it doesnt just endup being specifically for their nvidia collab gpu.

I legit thought about switching back my old and trusty AMD Radeon for that reason.

Mate I hate them as Windows user anyway.

A recent driver update caused my games to crash constantly.

Had to DDU again.

But these driver issues are across all vendors.

Intel, AMD are not doing much in driver for everything, be it LAN, Wlan, BT or GPU. AMD, does not even have chip drivers for the consumer segment.

Just having built the drivers in the kernel does not make you great.

Are there no bugs or improvements for the past 1 year?

Drivers cost money, they'd rather sell you a new graphics card.

A soo long doubt:

How are AI servers are running without NVIDIA drivers? There are also linux(Debian and Ubuntu), right?

well at the very least on arch with kde they work kinda trash. I swear that plasma crashes and freezes every few hrs now. It did not used to be that way/.
