op is a secret owl

Like others suggested here, the problem is probably nouveau and you might want to try a gaming-oriented distro which usually configure these things correctly out-of-the-box. My favourite is Nobara and Fedora (which didn't work for you but works for me because I have different hardware). People suggest Bazzite, but I cannot recommend it because it's based on Fedora Atomic, and I don't get along with Fedora Atomic.

As a general admittedly non-helpful suggestion, don't get Nvidia hardware if you want to use Linux.

are there people who made it work? sure.

For some historical context, Nvidia has had premium Linux support since 2006. For the longest time it was the only option for any kind of hardware accelerated 3D graphics on Linux and it generally worked pretty well.

Thankfully, AMD made the open-source side of graphics on Linux work also recently. At least for two years, AMD GPUs have been entirely trouble-free on Linux. To my knowledge, Nouveau is not quite there yet.

I’ve no idea if Arch actually has newer drivers than Debian / Fedora

Kinda, since Arch has nvidia's own drivers in their extra repo, whereas in Fedora you'll have to do some stuff to get them.

Western secret services like the CIA have been infiltrating those countries’

Yeah, that's serious cultural appropriation against the russians.

Do comment deletions not get federated on lemmy or what? This is not the first time I commented something, regretted it almost instantly and deleted it, and the received replies several hours later.

That's exactly what happens when a Facebook competitor (possibly an ethical one) rolls out these days. Which is part of the problem. Zuck poisoned the idea.

I think that he really does have actual nazi ideals and that his apparent lack of ideals is the smokescreen.

It's outrageous to suggest that him being a nazi is merely "a claim".
