It’s generally easier because the drivers are built in. Nvidia is perfectly usable, but it’s more susceptible to breaking during kernel updates. It’s not as bad as everyone makes it sound though. That said, AMD is usually the way to go on Linux unless your use case requires Nvidia.

FYI this is the nouveau driver no one uses. There is absolutely no reason to use an nvidia card and this driver.

Claude says it’s a cherry laurel. The berries are toxic.

I have the latest Framework 13 and I had a ThinkPad before this. I can recommend either of them. The Framework is one of my favorite computers I’ve had, but it’s not cheap. You will save some money if you ever have to make repairs, but I don’t know how the TCO works out for upgrades. It’s more about empowerment and reducing waste though.

Linux runs fine on both the Framework and the ThinkPad. You can pretty much just take your pick of distros and they should work, although you may want to stick with one of the more up to date distros on Framework because it has new hardware. Fedora, Arch-based, Tumbleweed all work well.

They ban you for all kinds of nonsense. I had a couple turned over on appeal. My latest ban was for 7 days for threatening violence because I said I hoped those guys who got caught fomenting unrest in Greenland were charged with something serious made an example. The comment was on topic, within the confines of the justice system and made no threat against anyone. Reddit has some really weird moderation. I just deleted the account. Fediverse is better for actual engagement anyway.

On Vivaldi, I only use the built in filtering. Is that not good enough? I’m able to block everything I was using ublock origin for. I also block ads at the DNS level.

I would love for him to find NixOS and then create a better version.
