I switched from linux on the desktop to MacOs precisely because of the problems linux had - driver support, even LTS updates breaking functionality, and overall clunkiness. I run linux on all my servers.

Really? What driver support on a desktop were you experiencing?

I've run Linux mint on my desktop at home for a few years now and have had zero problems at all (Intel i5, Nvidia gfx, wired connection).

The last time I had driver issues with Linux was ~10 years ago and it was for a laptop running Ubuntu.
