     @Narbray nouveau are the community created open source nvidia drivers. they severely limited and inferior to the proprietary official ones.
     
     TL;DR fuck nvidia

     @DarkMahesvara @Narbray did the team looked around the drivers' source code that the NVIDIA open-sourced a while back?

     @DarkMahesvara so, it is better to buy an AMD, I use the stable version.

     @Narbray its the only option if you want free driver. there is intel now but they still unreliable with lower performance but maybe in +3 years.
     
     i guess with stable you mean Mesa which is graphics library supporting many different APIs like Vulkan and OpenGL

     @MoeBritannica @Narbray im sure they did. from my limited understanding it does not help much if at all. they still get the finger until they stop with there feature exclusivity bs
