This is a re-upload of an older YouTube video. You may or may not agree with my honest opinion, but we as Linux gamers have come a long way! Make sure to motivate me for more content by, at least, ...
The awesome people who volunteer their time to bring you the free operating system that you’re whining about would love to support your card, and in fact do so despite the best efforts of the vendor to be a complete ass and ignore their Linux customers.
You’re probably right, I get triggered when the blame is assigned to the wrong people.
It’s Nvidia’s fault for not caring about their customers, and it’s the customers fault for buying their products and not shouting at the vendor for poor user support.
GamePass on the cloud works, but MS has made a choice to not let it work on Linux. This is not an issue with Linux. It’s an issue with MS and Windows. They choose to distribute the games using a proprietary encryption method, which harms the user’s experience and makes it only work on Windows. You can’t mod your games (unless the explicitly allow it and let you decrypt it) because “fuck you, this is ours.” Fuck them. If they want my money they can make a better product that works where I want to be. You should hold yourself to that level too, not lick their boot and thank them for the privilege.
Yes to everything up to Xbox Game Pass (and whatever Gaming Cloud is), just pick a mainstream distro and you should be good, as long as your daughter isn’t set on playing specific games w/ anti-cheat.
So, my Nvidia card will work out of the box with secure boot on and my daughter can play Xbox Gaming Pass or Gaming Cloud now?
Edit: yes, blame me, the user, for having realistic expectations of what I want working on my PC…

I think they are criticizing the headline more than Linux its self.

I almost want to make the meme with “Microsoft locks down their software to be unusable on Linux” “Why would Linux do this”
