I’ve been using Pop!_OS (and only it) for about 3 years now because Windows messed itself up on one of my laptops and I didn’t feel like reinstalling it. During those 3 years, Nvidia on my two laptops has “just worked” with absolutely zero broken upgrades I can remember. I’m not trying to install a bunch of GNOME plugins to make it usable because that’s already said and done out of the box. There are zero annoying things running in the background sucking up all my processor time. So, overall, I haven’t snoozed more from a Linux distro, in contrast to trying to set up Arch on one of my SBCs.

Because of that, Pop will be the ONLY thing I’m installing on my computers for the foreseeable future. :) I wish all Linux distros were as boring as this.

    I’ve got a laptop with pop and windows with dual boot, I realized when I play Minecraft on pop using the Nvidia the laptop gets like really really hot compared to playing Minecraft on windows (using Nvidia). Do you have the same experience?

        Could be… The Intel for the os and the Nvidia for Minecraft, how can I change it? Stop the hybrid and just run everything on Nvidia?

          It should be on the top right menu the option to change the graphics
