The open-source NVK driver in Mesa has gotten quite a lot of attention over the past couple years, unfortunately it will probably never be competitive with the proprietary driver on older hardware (Pascal (10xx series) and older) because those GPUs require a proprietary firmware blob in order to increase the GPU clock speeds.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts
