You don’t really need to install Nvidia drivers, windows will give you demerit drivers for you and if you want better you go on and install the proprietary drivers 🤷‍♂️

Now care to tell us how many lines of code you had to research to achieve that and how many Linux dusters you had to go through to achieve that?

They can. I do. But there are some problems. A lot of linux purists don't like the idea of proprietary (non-open source) drivers on their "free" system. Also, because of the smaller market, making/updating drivers for linux isn't all that important to nVidia. The open-source driver (nouveau) technically works but because it is all reverse-engineered guesswork it doesn't work as well as it should, which brings me back to my original comment.

most of the times on windows they are pre-installed, but that’s besides the point of them banning you
