"it's fundamentally inferior to Linux"

I installed linux mint on a new drive in January

Firefox was tearing awfully on just scrolling

Surely I just need to install Nvidia drivers

Install drivers, but they dont work due to some secure boot interaction with driver signing, that made me jump through quite a few hoops (thx to AI for walking me through it fairly well)

I'm sorry but an average person is not ready for this level of bs in their daily life

Part of the problem is the unpredictability. I have Nvidia too and I never had these problems.

Linux mint is not a good distro
