I’m planning on changing to Linux eventually, but my PC has a 4060ti. I have heard that Nvidia drivers are a pain to install, and I don’t have the means to change to a non-Nvidia GPU. Am I in trouble?

If you’re using a desktop, it’s not a pain at all. Any issues are blown out of proportion by AMD fanboys.
If you’re on a laptop, installing them is a bit more of a hassle but using the dedicated GPU is an issue that needs to be addressed someday. Essentially, laptops with Nvidia GPUs need to prepend
prime-run
to every application they want to use the dedicated GPU.I mean blow out of proportion nowadays yes. But this wasn’t the case just a few years ago. We have come such a long way to make it almost a simple click install. But dont forget where we came from.
So their is some truth to it although its mostly outdated now.
