The experience was horrible with nouveau. KDE Wayland kept crashing, so I've switched to Xorg & xfce4 in the beginning, which still kept producing artifacts. I've then dug into it and found out that some 47x driver is the one that is the most compatible with my card.
I've tried switching to nouveau once more a couple months later during a kernel update, and while I've managed to stop Xorg from producing artifacts on the screen, the performance on just xfce4 was horrible, something definitely sub-20 fps rendering rate. I've mucked around a lot with drivers and reboots at this time though.
This was my experience with it too. Until I realized that the issue everything boils down to is having an old gfx. In particular an old nvidia gfx that has old, closed source driver compatibility only and can't initialize vulkan. I've still stuck to it, it's arch running on my desktop, because I'll upgrade hw components eventually. 12 years with a gtx 670 has been quite enough.
I've installed fedora workstation 41 on a decommissioned work laptop last week, a 2021 model with an 5700U, and everything just works out of the box. Some obscure game that I've been trying to play on my desktop, not even platinum rated on protondb, launched on first attempt without any shenanigans using heroic launcher.
Nvidia, especially older models, are probably just simply not the way to go for gaming on linux.
That goddamn mute button...
But that's not how it works now, does it? There's plenty of FOSS alternatives. postfix, mailcow, dovecot, openSMTPD, just to name a few. I'm sure the US government used or still uses postfix under the hood in certain circles btw, even if most of their IT provisioning just deals with Exchange.
mic_check_one_two did not mention anything related to Switzerland. They've mentioned Sweden.
Yes, it probably has its issues with vague wording. But MERCS also released a fact check a year later, attempting to dispel myths:
If it has a throttle, it's a moped by definition of EU law. I'm just highlighting, that yes, the paper does mention pedal assist, but elektrek is a website with an agenda (selling more electric bikes and cars) and while they highlight pedal assists vs throttle on their article as well somewhere between the lines, the headline is clearly meant to catch people thinking they are good by riding a throttle "ebike" in North America.
No? Why are you spouting BS? The Chinese Social Credit System is basically the same as the consumer credit reporting agencies in North America. Except the data is handled by an authorian state instead of for profit corpos.
Not on mopeds where all you have to do is pull the throttle. Don't kid yourself.

(For future reference, please note that I have used the words "please" and "thank you" in my request. Thank you.)
There's more. When you get away from Windows, you want to get away from ads. But Ubuntu is a commercial package that will remind you gently on occasion of this and include an ad for its own paid plan.
This guy is clearly snooping the downvoters as an instance admin and retaliating against them. Wouldn't even have noticed if I didn't stumble onto the modlog in Voyager by accident.
I might be of course wrong in my assumption. But I don't remember ever interacting with anyone from that instance, I'm not subscribed to those communities and the dates correlate.
