I never stopped using Firefox, and I never had a problem with anything but Government sites.

Nvidia here under Linux, been running Nvidia hardware/drivers for about five years now with little in the way of problems. The latest hardware is supported on release, and my performance while gaming is fantastic.

Even Wayland support is maturing under Linux running Nvidia hardware/drivers, to the point whereby it's mostly as usable as Wayland gets now.

At least you have the option of running the latest Nvidia hardware under Linux, it seems dedicated GPU support under MacOS is dwindling by the month.

Does EAC work correctly playing Apex Legends under Linux? If it does I'll download the game tonight.

Put simply, I'm tired of being the product, and it's obvious that Reddit wanted to implement more data harvesting and more advertising to their platform. Couple that with the outrageous cost to use their API, and it's bye, bye Reddit.

Ah, it's good to know it's not just me then...

Good to know and great advice. All my games work fine, it's just that Battle.net constantly seems to think there's an update available. I'll just wait it out.

It's bloody odd. May I ask what version of Battle.net you're running?

I haven't experienced an issue adding PPA's in about four years. The package manager simply does what it's meant to do and things just work.

Running KDE Neon here, my Nvidia experience has been faultless, adding the PPA and installing the drivers is reliable and straightforward. Wayland works acceptably, but running a single 4k 27" monitor X11 works perfectly, so at this point in time I see no reason to swap to Wayland - I'm sure in time I'll adopt Wayland, I'm simply not quite ready to drop my ability to create custom fan profiles using GWE just yet.

Nvidia X Server settings are nice, as is nvidia-smi.

If yet another platform wants to treat me as a consumerised cash cow, I say screw that platform. With the economy the way it is, I can't afford the products/services being peddled anyway.

KDE Neon. It does everything I expect an OS to do and stays out of my way...
