Either you were extremely lucky or you didn't even realize your problems
were caused by the proprietary drivers or you're just putting up with the
problems (such as the driver not supporting the current Fedora when it gets
released, it happened several times with NVidia too) without realizing
they're avoidable. Probably all 3 of those.
