    I get so frustrated hearing this take over and over again.

    https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers

    This is the process for installing the DKMS Nvidia GPU drivers on Debian.

    The process to install said drivers on Ubuntu, Pop, Mint, etc, is literally clicking an icon.

    Yes, following the manual is easy for you, and easy for me. It’s not easy for the tech illiterate elders in our lives. And it’s not easy for me to drop in weekly to solve their problems either.

        I’m not recommending Nvidia. I’m making a point by giving an example of the procedure for installing drivers for the most common GPU (by a wide margin, amd and intel market share accounts for single digit market share) being far more difficult on Debian than other distributions that are more beginner friendly.

        Did you even bother to read the thread?
