    I don’t really understand GPU drivers so might be getting the wrong idea here, but it seems as if maybe what they’ve been exploring is overly complicated ways to avoid having fully open source drivers in the straightforward way that some of their customers are beginning to demand.

    Things could at least become more convenient for nvidia users even if not much closer to the ideals of free software.

      The easier it is for onboarding the better, even if it includes proprietary software. The discovery of free or open source software will come when they start exploring what’s available on Linux and find workflows that suit them.

      I like free and open source software but the freedom of choice is what’s really important in the end.
