What was stopping the person before? I've been using debian as my desktop for years.

Watching the video, the main reason is native up-to-date drivers, mostly for nvidia

I'm not into videos, but yeah ok, the person had a particular obnoxious computer that they wanted to use, rather than something being wrong with debian. I always take linux compatibility into account when buying hardware in the first place.

You don't pick hardware to support you OS? Weird.

Same: just built a frankenstein PC of spare parts gathered with the purpose of running Debian 13 on it because that's what I love. But I also recognise that I know my way around stuff when I need to troubleshoot...
