if you need specific drivers that arent in a generic kernel you’re already out of everyday user territory even on a normal distro.

People will say some absurd statement like this one and then pretend to be confused when Linux adoption fails to grow faster.

Its OK for them to step out of everyday user territory no one is saying they can't. Its just that installing drivers on Linux is not common.

The nvidia driver is the only thing I can think that an average user would need to install and that is shipped pre installed in most distros.

Also I'm not confused Linux isn't growing fast enough. I'm surprised limux is growing as fast as it is. Linux is growing at an insane rate.
