What? You just have to install the proprietary drivers, they work perfectly fine. I get that if you don't want any proprietary stuff NDIVIA is not the best experience (opensource drivers are not good because of lack of support) but I'd hardly call that a huge mess.
If you want to use Wayland without having to tweak lots of things or use weird hacks then Nvidia isn't an option.
Also in my experience the open source drivers nowadays have better performance and support than the proprietary Nvidia drivers
Not the open source nvidia drivers. They don't support reclocking so there's no way to get any useable results for gaming (and if not for gaming, why use an nvidia gpu anyway? Compute isn't supported in nouveau anyway).
Edit: typo
I was talking about Mesa not the Nvidia open source drivers. I should have worded it differently
The open source Nvidia drivers are part of Mesa. You were talking about RADV and RadeonSI, the open-source AMD drivers in Mesa.
