I know. The best you can do in Linux is not use nvidia.

    That is no longer the case. The Nvidia drivers for Linux are pretty decent, these days. They're still closed source, so if that's a deal breaker for you, you'll need to buy an AMD GPU.

    The problem is not that they are bad, is that if someone makes a project that depends on the specific drivers then it will work much worse if the drivers are closed source. Wayland was unusable with nvidia drivers until recently.

    I'm not sure if the closed-source drivers have social media garbage on them at the moment, but I'm very sure that I don't trust Nvidia not to add it.
