Absolutely not. Just the other day I saw a post about one of the desktops getting something close to working DPI scaling out of the box. And no, you don't need to figure out shit on Windows. You download the driver, double click and it's done. The only thing even moderately annoying is HDR calibration which is a mess in itself on Linux. I understand Linux is getting closer, but it's not on par with ease of use.
Manually downloading drivers? How savage.🧐 *AMD and Intel master race has things working out of the box since many years*
Jesus Christ, of course Nvidia has the base drivers. Y'all are just pouty over the reality check. Until Linux desktop is easier and better supported Windows will continue strong.
