Linux is the only viable solution to this mess. And no it is not as scary as it seema
Still waiting for nvidia to pull their heads out of their asses and fix gaming performance on their GPUs under Linux before I make the jump myself. And no, I don't want an AMD GPU.
What's wrong with amd? In the market for a gpu right now
Nothing really wrong with them if they offer the performance and features you want. But I am a high end user and I also use some software that's really reliant on CUDA. So they're not really winning in either the performance or the features department for my personal use.
Nothing. The current generation card is slightly worse in rasterization performance while handily slapping my 7900 XTX in Ray tracing performance.

I use NVIDIA on Linux and nothing no issues or performance hits
I'm just shocked Fedora is playing well with a quadro series card, and I'm not looking back. If there's some bottleneck, it's no larger than the one on my general experience with windows. Though I would very much like to be runnung a non-tainted kernel.
Yeah I understand that things have improved a lot. But it's the 10-30% performance hit in DX12 games that keeps me from wanting to dive into Linux as my primary OS on my gaming machine. If they can get that closer to parity with Windows, I'm all-in on Linux for life.
It’s fine. Not sure where you heard it’s terrible.
I know it's not terrible, but there is a performance disparity there that you can't ignore. If someone is spending $1000+ on a high end GPU I think it is fair for them to expect a level of performance that's a little better than "fine".
