Nvidia used to be the gold standard for Linux graphics, they’ve slowly slid and Intel had good drivers even if the hw was weak, but amd is really making a solid showing right now, especially considering their legacy of decent hardware with garbage software.
For me, I don’t care if the software is rough as long as the drivers work. The amd apps were annoying when I was doing things in Windows, but after I got my updates I closed it all out. I don’t plan on interacting with them much.
It’s only been a few weeks, but yeah I noticed that I don’t have to fight my windows as often. Games don’t have issues with odd window layouts either.

I wonder how much of that is down to the Steam Deck and its AMD hardware?
