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

Well to be fair, most AI workloads are on Linux and that's a huge fraction of their sales. But desktop Linux, yeah, not going to notice at all.

I suspect that's the main reason they've bothered supporting the desktop Linux crowd, we act as free testers for their more lucrative Linux-based deals.

Let's say there's half a million Nvidia Linux desktop users, that's super few if you think of them as desktop customers, but they're worth gold as free QA people.
