you would expect them to provide drivers for their hardware
I'd correct: we would expect them to provide at least documentation.

OP called users of the software stupid, not the software.
(in my opinion the software is stupid, and users of stupid software are stupid :) because desktop environment is inefficient compared to pure window manager, and keyboard-based wm)
Please,
Just use what you want.
Why we have to care much about software usage. This is the current issue of linux communities, which decrease user qualities.
Our enemy Microsoft and other "big tech" laugh people like these. They are using linux just like they use windows, even bring the bad, flawed windows culture to linux.
Don't let the enemy to laugh at us.
Linux is already broken :)
it’s a Linux issue
Not a linux's issue, though. When they don't have documentation, they can decide not to write a driver, and not to use proprietary drivers too.
But nvidia doesn't care about linux, doesn't target linux. And current "linux communities" can't do anything but whine.
Well, I’m not a Linux user and I say that as well. Nvidia does not just not care about Linux, they actively try to act against their open source driver implementation
Can you give more information on this?
+1
Telling people to just drop Nvidia is delusional
We can tell people that is going to buy a new computer to avoid nvidia :)
It’s Linux desktop contributers problem to fix.
We can't write drivers for platforms that we don't have documentation. linux desktop contributors dropping support for nvidia entirely is not a bad decision, though
Just let people use it.
In fact many "linux user" won't tolerate others' software :)
If nvidia is an evil, then why you suppose them to provide you free drivers.
Just drop nvidia.
advertising again.
Skimming your pdf it even talks about package building and delivery.
The talks shows the attitude of BSD communities to each others.
Which most linux communities doesn't have yet.
I agree, but that’s what a linux user would say…
"linux user" should be put in double quotes :)
correct
