I have had to spend so much more time thinking about drivers on Windows than on Linux it's not even funny

And what are Nvidia users supposed to do?

Use POP OS which has NVIDIA Drivers in the iso

Or Nobara which has a dedicated Nvidia install tool in its welcome screen

Unfortunately it has weird issues with my bog standard Intel HP Omen laptop and a 2060 GPU.

Basically any kind of sleep mode kills the GPU. I have go into Display settings and force a re-detect to wake it. Kind of a pain when you use the laptop connected to an external monitor with the lid closed.
