AMD apparently had asynchronous compute support in hardware when Nvidia didn't. And cryptocurrency miners bought AMD a lot more as well.

I don't call lock-in shenanigans a fair advantage. And supporting lock-in is a slippery slope.

That did not come with support for C++, Fortran, .NET, Java, graphical debuggers with ability to step through shader code, so bad luck.
