Thank you for all the replies! I will bunker in and wait it out. For the nvidia problems, it’s Steam recommending me drivers which were pre installed on Ubuntu 24, but on 26.02 the were nuked :( I still want to be social and play some games with my friends
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-550-open
Gives all all these errors with dependencies.
Proton VPN I installed from official command lines from their website:
sudo apt install proton-vpn-gnome-desktop
`Error: Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting assignments:
- python3-proton-vpn-api-core:amd64=5.0.1 is selected for install because:

ok back to Ubuntu 24 it is :)
just switch to Linux, Ubuntu or Fedora. You will get your computer back. It will break, you will fall and learn but 1-2 months you will never ever go back to windows. People have been brainwashed into using Microsoft. You don’t need all these addictive Apps and spyware from 3rd parties. Life is peaceful. People have been telling this for a long time
