Insulting people will only get you more downvotes. You don't have to be so rude.

Also:

  • Display should be supported OOTB
  • Many distros have Nvidia ISOs with Nvidia drivers
  • idk what the lenovo things are
  • The keybindings wouldn't be too difficult to do given how customizable Linux is
  • Wine can run most Windows software on Linux

Was anything before "Edit:" rude? Should I expect that everyone in the Linux community will reply to genuine barriers with contempt and downvotes? Because that's what you're saying of the reply to my original post.

You're saying I would only get "more" downvotes for being rude, hence you expect some downvotes on a genuine list of concerns no matter what.

What a community! 🙄
