I agree. My mom has been running Mint for 9 years with no problems. My tech illiterate friend who has an nvidia gpu on the other hand needs a lot of handholding. He would never be able to make a transition on his own.

    Yup. Linux + Nvidia is the problem here. I convinced my friend to move to Linux, explaining that all his favorite Steam games work on my Linux machine with no issues, just download and click play, tested it myself. Turns out, I don't have an nvidia gpu, he does, and a lot of the games straight up don't work, and the ones that do need at least one config change, if not more.

    I have yet to have any issues on Steam myself when gaming with my Radeon card.
