Well, for X11 you either take input lag or horrible screen tearing, worse FPS even if you configure. Wayland just works, but on nvidia you have to do configuration and the information on “where and what exactly” is obscure as hell to a new user. Mint and Endeavour both put the configs automatically in modprobe.d, but distros like Debian don’t.
Screen tearing hasn’t been a serious issue in X11 for years now, unless you run XFCE. It’s just not an issue in Gnome or KDE.
I run Wayland+ optimus and it worked on PopOS just fine. Took a slight bit of tweaking on Universal Blue, but nothing major. Mainly it works with gaming on Bazzite but not Aurora for some bizarre reason. CUDA worked fine in all of the above.
