But then the Nvidia xx90 series have never been for the average consumer and I dont know what gave you that idea.

It dosen't work that way and we've known that for a long time. You cannot counteract desire by fueling it, it will only make it worse.
In my experience, GNOME on Wayland had been terribly unstable on Fedora (I assume it's instability with my Nvidia card).
Yeah, history. Ain't it a bitch sometimes
It was them that NSDAP, Antifa and KPD all helped to destroy
Does OpenSUSE Tumbleweed support HDR monitors?
Those warplanes where destroyed and the world is better for it
Hardware support is the Achilles Heel of Linux
Dude, using an Nvidia RTX 3080 card has been a bust for me. I lost count how many times Gnome crashed. Now I'm running KDE Plasma, and I can just hope it works.
Now I obviously cannot point to any specific driver issues or the like, so I cannot make any general conclusions other than from my own experience.
Maybe the issues stems from the Ampere architecture of the 30-series. However I would still issue a warning, although still recommend people curious to try out Fedora with Gnome, even if you have an Nvidia card.
My suggestion for people finally looking to switch from Win 10 to a Linux distro; if you have an Nvidia card, avoid Gnome (desktop env. many distros ship with it). It's unfortunate since Gnome looks and feels great but my lord is it unstable on Nvidia drivers. I've tried to stabilize on my RTX 3080 but no luck.
My folly was HDR support, and boy that aint easy.
Wait, Plasma has HDR support? I thought only really Gnome was that far the Wayland pipe that they had support for HDR?
Being constrained by HDR support has been the bane of the last few days of moving to linux since Gnome causes me no end of issues, its simply very unstable in my system.

Took me like 10 seconds going trough this comment thread to disprove that 'brilliant' conclusion. Lmao.
