I’m just so sick of Microsoft and Google. But there’s two things holding me back:

  1. I wanna play Steam games on my PC

  2. I am just an amateur hobbyist, not a tech wizard

Is there any hope for me?

    Huh, this was definitely a fix I used on an older version that I just moved over to a new install with the new drivers so the drm modset line may not be necessary anymore yeah. I’ll check next time I connect to my monitor.

    And yeah, it’s def gonna get better. I’ve already seen both wayland and nvidia improve significantly over the last 2-3 years so at this rate, things should “just work” pretty soon (insert meme about year of the Linux desktop).

    I vividly remember struggling to get proprietary drivers working on Fedora 37 (or 38, it’s been a minute) only to have them break on the next version on my previous laptop. It was definitely much MUCH easier to install on Fedora 42 on my current one and updates haven’t broken anything for me since 40.
