A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Nvidia on wayland really isn't that bad nowadays. Hell I would say that it's pretty good even
With a 1080 it hard locks on start up. With a 3080, same results, with my 1660, same results. Tested with Fedora 38.
maybe try Nobara or PopOS that provide support for nvidia ootb
I'll check again but I believe as I was testing out Linux distros to put on my kid's laptop just 2 weeks ago, I tested PopOS and it somehow failed. I think it failed to boot entirely because some service not launching. I'd need to double-check that though. Overall I had about 6 distros to go through and moved on. I've stayed away from Nobara because it doesn't seem like a well-trodden path.
I've looked at jumping back into FreeBSD or perhaps going to Gentoo but frankly, that's more if I was going to turn my whole computer into a hobby project and I have other hobbies I want to use my computer for.
