Sorry, I won’t test this myself because I’ll never combine Nvidia with Linux for years to come but all the time it was promised that X11 fallback for Nvidia would no longer be needed and everytime it was followed up by countless bug reports that basic features aren’t working.
Those randos were Nvidia developers and DE developers making such statements towards distribution maintainers after they asked if removing the automatic X11 fallback for Nvidia GPUs is fine.
It’s always “one last feature / Nvidia workaround until it’s fine”. The same thing since years. Surely this time everything is different.

That’s the difference between some randos promising it and the devs extensively testing it and confirming it works universally.

They were not. I’d need a source for that.
