Pretty much every distro offers an easy way to install nvidia drivers.

It's the peripherals that really need drivers. I remember having to install digimend drivers for my friend's graphics tablet for example. That said, it wasn't supported well on Windows either and performed better on my Linux setup than on Windows once I did find out about the digimend drivers.

Driver troubles for peripherals aren't uncommon in Windows either. Don't get me started on printers. Somehow, printers and scanners have always been plug and play for me on Linux, contrary to what I often hear.

No, i think he means the idea that Linux is supposed to substitute Windows 1:1

Definitely. This is why i don't spend money on that account. Well, that and not wanting to spend on that store.

So, you don't like Epic because they didn't offer a refund beyond the refund window? Idk man, I don't like them for many reasons but this seems a bit off

it's games do not support Linux.

I just use Heroic and like 90% of my epic library just works. Admittedly, still won't spend anything on epic, but then, I like Heroic more than Steam at the moment...

They're very reliable from my experience

Just checked, you're right about Google. Microsoft does allow you to use any app though. It's funny that the "EEE" Microsoft is less anti-user than the "Don't be evil" Google. But anyway, seeing how Google locks it down, I'm sure there must be others too. So you're right
