Buys an NVIDIA GPU, complains it doesn't work with Wayland. Classic.
Oh, is that still a problem? I thought my GTX 1070TI was having problems in games because Debian ships quite old drivers. But if that happens on Arch, I guess I'm out of luck with that card for Linux ๐ฅฒ
I dont know how old your card is, but NVIDIA only recently decided not to be complete gobshite on Linux and newer cards should be safer (from what I've read). AMD has been stable on linux for the last decade or so while NVIDIA (aka NOVIDIO) was a terrible actor on Linux and the community had to reverse engineer a lot of their stuff.
The 900 and 1000 series are the worst for Linux as neither Nouveau nor the new Nvidia drivers will ever properly support the cards...
Yeah, a common NVIDIA L.
