I'm considering making the switch to Linux on my laptop, and since I have an Nvidia graphics card, I'd love to know which Linux distribution has the best support for Nvidia drivers. Any recommendations?

Ubuntu is usually a solid choice for Nvidia support. It's user-friendly and has good driver management.
If you're looking for ease of installation, Mint is fantastic. It has a separate panel just for installing drivers, which makes the whole process smooth.
I've had a great experience with CachyOS for gaming and Nvidia support! It's really optimized for that.
I thought all the distros used the same Nvidia drivers? Is there a significant difference I'm missing?
Not exactly all the same. Some distros handle Nvidia drivers more gracefully than others, especially during the installation process.
I've heard the same! A lot of gamers swear by it.
