    Well I listened to all the people hyping up Linux and tried pop os, literally nothing works right, it’s unusable lol. First time I tried to install it it straight up failed, worked on the second try. My hdr monitor isn’t supported apparently and looked dim no matter what I did. Had to fiddle with the display settings for a while to get scaling to work right so I could read text on the higher resolution monitor and fonts looked like ass anyways on the 1080p one. The messenger I use didn’t get a network connection until it crashed and restarted without OpenGL (what?). And the system scaling didn’t work in steam anyways so all the text was like 8px. After all that fun I can’t imagine how bad windows would need to get for me to switch to this garbage

      Yeah you’re full of shit, sorry but I’ve never heard of any of these issues happening. The only thing I can think of is you used the wrong ISO that wasn’t for Nvidia or something. Also, you want HDR then use KDE, so you want something like KDE Neon or Kubuntu. As for fonts looking like shit, again, it’s all down to your drivers would be my guess, meaning you’re the one who downloaded the wrong ISO for pop_os. I’m running an all AMD build, maybe you should look into that I guess if you literally can’t click install on the hardware drivers applet in any modern Linux distro.
