Or Nvidia either according to all the people telling me my problems aren't valid.
So if you want a good time with Linux you need and AMD GPU or integrated graphics, and it can't be too new, and it can't be too old.
I think linux's image is pretty accurate
Also "Be ready to learn a new operating System! Linux isn't Windows and the terminal is key to fix issues." I agree. I think that's not a good idea for a lot of people though. So I think posts like OP's are kinda stupid. People shouldn't try to push Linux on people who shouldn't use it.
I mean most people don't have issues with their gpu. But if you do then get ready for day long trouble shooting.
But if you can't fix problems that my arise don't use Linux.
On the other hand if you only use Internet and occasionally a text Editor like libre writer you won't notice the difference between Linux or Windows
But I thought tenant #1 of the cult of Linux was that Linux is always superior to Windows and everyone should be pushed to use it, no matter what?
Correct, but only as long as you are willing to fix things for them
