Yes Nvidia is still a shitty company like every other. But their open source drivers run pretty well by now.
Assuming you're talking about Nouveau, it's pretty hit or miss depending on what card you have. My previous laptop had an MX330 and it couldn't do hardware acceleration stuff and 120Hz via HDMI, not to mention screen sharing on Wayland was wonky.
Oh, and it's worth to mention that "their" open source driver had nothing to do with Nvidia themselves; they absolute do not care, as opposed to AMD.
I think he means nvk. It's a whole new world. I thought I just heard it's ready. So worth checking out I guess.
Judging by the docs at mesa3d, I don't even have a card that supports it
