I run proprietary Nvidia drivers as well and Wayland runs so much better than Xorg now that I’m permanently coming over to Wayland. I’m extremely happy rn with Wayland

    Seems nice. Have you tried different types, like native, proton, older proton versions, lutris etc?

      Not who you were talking to buy also have an 3050 Mobile.

      Runs things like Dolphin, Age Of Empires 2, 3 (definitive edition) and 4 great (had to hide igpu from aoe 4 because it thought it had 16gb vram). Never run them under X11 because I like the trackpad gestures in GNOME, but also have never had to.

      However, it should be noted that the NVIDIA card isn’t really interacting with Wayland as desktop rendering is handled by the igpu in hybrid laptops (unless explicitly set). On my PC with a Quadro M2000 on driver 545 there is alot of flickering in Xwayland apps on Wayland so I use X11 there. Someone from NVIDIA actually submitted something to fix th flickering but it hasn’t been incorporated yet, don’t know if it ever will. NVIDIA should just fix it in their drivers (which hopefully 550 does).
