This update, among other things, adds support for VK_EXT_descriptor_heap, which should bring significant performance boost to Nvidia cards, once it's properly implemented.

Okay, then I think there's a communication issue because I felt you were talking about serious problems with Linux as an operating system. These examples are unavoidable in a decentralized, volunteer model. FreeTube software is failing because it's fighting a corporate entity that is protecting it's revenue - the same will be happening on the Windows version. Unless the script was written as part of Pandas, there's no reason to expect them to 'just work'. That's one independent party doing work that impacts another independent party, and will likely be fixed. That kind problem happens every day in Windows but Windows is not considered unstable because of it.
