I also have a NVIDIA card, and I use Linux with Wayland. It’s usable for sure! But people are honestly downplaying the issues a lot.
I’ve had a lot of bugs and issues that are pretty annoying, such as apps flickering, performance sometimes (rarely) falling off a cliff for seemingly no reason, the card underclocking itself sometimes when waking from sleep (which kills performance until you reboot), and worst of all, random kernel panics that force me to hit the reset button, losing any unsaved work and risking a filesystem corruption (because there’s no safe way to shutdown since everything is completely and utterly locked up).
I’ve reported these bugs, and most of them have actually been fixed in the latest driver versions! But the kernel panics still happen once in a while, and that’s not great.
So be warned! But don’t be scared off. All of these issues are infrequent. Most of the time, it works without issue, and games actually run really great!
