I say number seven would be good, because I see or hear that one so often. I haven't had to use the terminal for at least as long as you have been on hiatus. I have chosen to use the terminal a few times, but I haven't needed to use it for a long time.

#10 definitely should be on the list sooner or later. I've been using Linux for more than 14 years since I was 13, and there were just too many times of Nvidia implementing features way too late into the Linux drivers, lagging behind the new kernel releases, other kernel compatibility shenanigans, Xinerama and Optimus not working properly. I don't ever want to return to Nvidia on Linux but would be glad to hear alternative opinions

Personal Bias here: #6 interests me the most. Probably not a terribly popular topic overall, however. As much as I want to jump on the #10 bandwagon, I have to admit Nvidia has been pretty good for me. Just making it work the way I want it to work feels like 1997 all over again with my Diamond Stealth 32 card. Getting the correct incantation is key.

I feel like you already covered #3 pretty well, but the landscape for that one has shifted toward more favorable since the hiatus. Would be good to hear your updated thoughts on it!

#10 I'm on several Discord communities for Linux and the sentiment is that if you want a trouble free gaming experience, you had better be on, or acquire, an AMD GPU. Why? Because it's so incredibly common to see people running into issues with their Nvidia GPUs on various drivers, with no solution(s) to speak of, in both Gnome and KDE, as well as in both X11 and Wayland. Now, the issue with this is that when it comes to gaming on Windows PCs, NVIDIA outsells AMD with an whopping 88% market share. However, when it comes to Linux, AMD GPUs hold a 70% market share which is an incredible difference. This wouldn't be so much of an issue (competition is good for consumers) except for the fact that when PC gamers decide to drop Windows in favor of Linux, there is a good chance that they have an NVIDIA GPU, and as a result they are going to have a bad time, and ultimately blame Linux for any and all issues they might encounter. I'm on a 6800XT myself, with plans to upgrade to an NVIDIA 5000-series GPU, and without proper support from NVIDIA, I'm more inclined to steer clear of using Linux as a result. Please help the community by showing us how, if possible, we can use NVIDIA GPUs without issue. Linux adoption figures are depending on it.

Linux For Everyone
I have roughly 100+ video ideas from before Linux For Everyone went on hiatus. A "Myth Busting" series was one of them -- but I only made it through #2. Which one should I do next?
