    I started using AMD cuz it was the “more bang for your buck” option and because of my cheapness I have always had a great experience with Linux, excluding wifi breaking every few months.

      I went with AMD because I got fed up with nVidia, similarly like OP did or at least guy in the screen shot. Never looked back. Sure, AMD requires binary blob to initialize card, but it just works and zero issues since then. Upgrade hardware, just transfer drive to a new machine and voila you are ready to go.

          Same experience I had. nVidia is not a complete deal-breaker but people just don’t realize how many small nagging issues owning nVidia card entails. Switching to AMD was an eye-opening event for me. Then I realized how often I got annoyed by old card.
