Thank you for the update.

User experiences vary, so to see. I've been running Linux as a daily driver at home and at work since 2012, and I haven't looked back. I've cursed the battery life on my laptop recently, but two weeks back the self-diagnostic pre-boot software on my Dell informed me that the battery was dead. So the culprit might not have been Linux after all.

Oh, and count on an Nvidia update to randomly and regularly break your system. But that blame lays squarely on Nvidia.
