I was about to write a rant about how gaming isn’t difficult anymore, then I remembered that for some fucking reason, updating my OS version completely fucked my Nvidia driver which I now can’t get to work again, short of probably reinstalling the entire OS.
nvidia drivers suck both ways. the proprietary ones "work" but suffer from random issues and instability, and nouveau's performance is unworkable for games (fair enough, it's a reverse-engineered driver). amd cards are the way to go, work perfectly out-of-the-box on linux's built-in FOSS driver
gotta give the coders at Valve credit though, proton has come so far it's incredible how well games run through it

Nouveau fucking sucks.

the driver-updates meta is becoming the game itself
