    I’ve never used an AMD graphics card, but I recently got into gaming in Linux with my NVidia card and this is one of the things I have to deal with.

    • I want to launch a game.
    • There’s a problem
    • Oh are my drivers up to date?
    • apt-get update & upgrade
    • check driver version
    • check online for latest driver
    • I think flatpaks need to be updated as well? I’m new to flatpaks too.

    But yeah, you gotta check all the time.

      AMD (or anything that uses Mesa drivers really) just works out of the box. That pain is unique to NVIDIA.
