From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is why I haven't switched to Linux yet. I have a gaming laptop and a desktop pc is not an option at the moment.

It has been pretty stable, this is the only issue I have got since last year, but yeah I can understand ur reasons.

Just buy/use AMD and get rid of problems, in pc I'm still using my rx490 and never got any problem since I bought it.

If your laptop is on Nvidia then it might be a problem, just stay away from that brand going forward, and from online games with bad anticheats, and you're golden to go full Linux.
