Yeah it's the online component effected by the anticheat.
It used to work last year but they block Linux now.
I wonder if windows 10 has the same feature?
Those driver tools are often bundled with malware and do a poor job validating what they download is safe and correct. They are often associated with services that crawls the internet for downloads and tries to match the hardware id.
Generally, drivers are available from the motherboard or device manufacturer page. That said it's rarely the solution and for your gpu (amd or Nvidia) they already have their own tool for keeping you up to date.
But with Linux most of that is taken care of for you by either the kernel itself or your distro's maintainer.

If you're looking for something "easy" look into Kubuntu LTS.
That's fair, I probably am being too harsh on it. I did want to see season 2 of it before I wrote it off entirely.

One piece has been good so far but I got the impression it might be pulling back on the main character.
Edit just finished episode 2 of season 2 of the live action avatar. That was much better than I expected. My hope has been restored.
They also have a Linux version. But it might be cli only haven't checked.
Have you tried the new rewrite of jellyfin?
They sunsetted the current release version entirely.
There needs to be regulation that divorces commercial interests from the software that let's you use your devices and all telemetry being optional.
The software that facilitates the use of your device must be agnostic.
