I can only imagine xD

Been running windows myself for a long time because of application requirements and getting the most out of my graphics card. But what I'd really like to do, is to install linux again, run a windows virtualization within it and then pass direct access to the graphics card to the windows virtualization. It's apparently possible, but it takes a bunch of time to get set up. Oh well, at least my windows 11 setup is running fine for now

https://usebottles.com has been a big help for me. I use an old device with no GPU. I don't have to worry about the NVIDIA problems. Wish you would soon be able to use an OS that has better security and less bloat. Best of Luck!

I had not heard of this site, thanks for the tip. My problem is that I have a very powerful GPU that I'd like to use. Also, I was a hardcore GNU/Linux user throughout my twenties, and I definitely miss it. I have at least 3 ubuntu terminals running on my windows box via WSL (windows subsystem for linux) at all times, so I guess that says something lol

You are a lot more hardcore than I am. It is honestly surprising you didn't know about Bottles. In case you have missed out on https://universal-blue.org, give it a look. I might eventually switch to it from Fedora.

GPU support is getting better on Linux. You might be able to switch back to your favorite Distro in a few years without making big compromises. Best of Luck!

Thanks for the tips, I'm bookmarking this one right now. Better GPU support sounds uplifting too.

Best of Luck!
