Am I the only one unhappy with Nvidia drivers?

This will come as a bit of a rant, because it kind of is, but I want to know if I'm the only one experiencing this issues. On my dual boot system, Windows 10 and Fedora (previously Ubuntu) I can't seem to get a solid experience with the propietary Nvidia drivers. I always get worse performance in OpenGL and Vulcan applications than on Windows. I can't seem to get rid of screen tearing and the performance in a web browsing and the snappyness of the desktop is worse than my old 4 year old laptop with Intel integrated graphics.

The smooth scrolling is way choppier both in Firefox and Chrome when I'm using Linux. Stable Wayland support still after all this years seems to be still something we can only dream about.

AMD GPUs and Intel integrated graphics work beautifully in Linux with open source drivers. After all this years why are Nvidia cards the most problematic when using *nix operating systems? And this is not because I have a particular affinity for AMD, Nvidia or whatever. I bought the 1060 that I currently have because it was cheaper than the AMD equivalent and CUDA support is always a nice bonus.

Thank you Linux for making my POS laptop usable again

I used to use Ubuntu in a VM when I was 16 to try it out. I thought it was cool, but was unmotivated to do anything else.

Im a broke uni student in a stem major who got a hp stream from my gf bc she got it from her parents and never ended up using it anyway. Screw HP for this computer. 4GB ram with a dual core Intel Celeron N3060 CPU. Fine. Its a $250 laptop, thats still workable. But the "hard drive"? A 32GB eMMC drive. This laptop also has no screws. But that doesn't matter because its all integrated onto the same board anyway. With that being said, windows takes up 28 -30GBs of space. Sometimes shrinking it down to 0 BYTES of data left, and theres no chance of putting in my own drive. This is with only 300 -500mb total of downloaded programs on it. It was slow. Constantly had 80%-100% CPU usage. Also was unable to DL any more programs that I needed for school. Even with an SD card, I still need open space in my C drive.

For the record, I'm mad at HP because they know for a fact that most of their users are going to be running Windows on this POS. They know windows will eat up all the space on that drive. Because no one who has any sense with computers would get a 32GB computer. To me, this is taking advantage of ignorant users (old people mainly).

So I said fuck it, and installed Ubuntu on it. 21GB space left. Between 12%-30% CPU usage. Libre office programs free and now I can just use the terminal instead of going through the truoble of installing a linux bash shell on windows for programming assignments.

Thank you linux.
