Better for whom? The nvidia driver doesn't have proper wayland support, can't work with gallium nine, can't be included in the kernel, and has issues with v-sync.

Yet AMD cards under linux are complete misery

Driver support going away after a few years, random issues, etc

Every single nVidia card I used under linux just worked TM (ofc I'm not "pure" because I really couldn't care less about open vs closed drivers)

Indeed. While radeonsi continues to march forward, Nvidia doesn't rush to address the above. My next card is going to be Vega.
