"Nvidia" and "Linux" in the same message is the problem I am seeing here.
Long story short be mad at Nvidia for not having properly supported drivers, they only just allowed opensource drivers but its very much still alpha software.
They're literally releasing official versions for Linux. I'm not going to be mad at Nvidia, I'm going to be mad at the Linux community at this point for saying in another thread where I was asking about Nvidia support, and they responded 'nah shouldn't be an issue, there are only rarely Nvidia issues. Fucking. Liars.
Official versions sure, but proprietary and they only work with X11 which is essentially deprecated.
Wayland is replacing X11, Nvidia has made no serious attempts to support Wayland in their proprietary drivers. Fedora, Ubuntu, and now Debian (the core three) have all moved to Wayland by default.
Nvidia does take serious steps to support Wayland. Only since like half a year ago and not extremely fast but serious steps non the less.
