I have an nvidia GPU and tried popOS and Nobara and I cannot get games to run at all. Keeps crashing or going to a black screen and the game never actually launches. Definitely going to be going team red next round to get off windows finally

Same experience on Manjaro. Usually really low framerates, constant crashes and Wayland's broken.

Did you get the version of pop with the Nvidia drivers baked in?

I did and same with nobara, tried twice with pop and once with nobara and gave up a few weeks ago. Couldnt get platinum protondb games to run at all or would run at like 14fps on a 3080

Sorry then, unfortunately I can't help, it's worked on my machine but wouldn't know where to begin to help debug :(
