Then again I went with Pop!OS because it’s a gaming oriented distro with a version that already comes with NVIDIA drivers so they sort out whatever needs sorting out on that front,

That wasn't my experience at all with 22.04 LTS. It did have an nvidia driver already installed, but as previously mentioned It was old and I had to try probably 15 different drivers (each, again, requiring a hard system lock, reboot, and tinkering to attempt to use). I wasn't running Wayland, when the choice came up I went and did some investigation and found out that Wayland wasn't fully supported and I didn't want to mess with that, I wanted reliable.
