Someone please explain to me the issues going on between Apple and Nvidia. What I’ve read says it boils down to Nvidia wanting to access macOS’s core system with its drivers and Apple saying no, use our APIs. Lots of personal opinions claiming Nvidia is better than AMD. Why?

Basically, Nvidia screwed Apple by licensing them technology that they didn't fully own and then ultimately screwed the pooch on quality control -- putting Apple in the middle of a nasty patent lawsuit and fairly large monetary losses due to warranty claims.

There's been bad blood ever since. Which is sad, since Nvidia cards are definitely the better option for serious gamers (a burgeoning market).

When you're so out of the loop that you think WordPress is still a relevant technology...

High Sierra is a no-go for me. I’m not updating my iMac just to lose functionality of all of my older Adobe software. I hate the rentware model and Adobe gets no monthly pay out of me or my business.

An adobe.com forum post indicates that the issue is with APFS and not with High Sierra itself -- just opt not to upgrade your filesystem when you upgrade and apparently you're all good (can't confirm, haven't tried personally).
