the only thing i don't get is why they were speaking about popOS so much? is popOS really that big of a distro?

    Nope.

    The only reason is that they have a download for nvidia button on the first page.

    And if you don't have the motivation to search „distro xy nvidia” and copy paste the 2 or 3 commands to do it (or in the case of mint or Ubuntu do it via GUI) its simply easier to rave about a feature thats advertised on the website than to look for another 5 minutes and realise that its the norm.

    Or in non Linux terms: it's easier to look at the packaging of the $5 bottle and say its the best because it says leak proof than to try the $5 Aluminium isolating coffee cup from recycled Metal and anti spill over opening and actually make a fair comparison
