It's definitely not up for AAA gaming but it's not horrible either. But why restrict Nvidia cards altogether when nouveau already supported by the kernel? Obviously it would be a stop-gap solution until proper support for the proprietary drivers is integrated but people like me can't run Chimera right now. I wouldn't mind trying it but I can't.

Granted I don't have a recent GPU (1050Ti), but nouveau has been unable to run plasma with compositing enabled reliably for more than about 10 days straight on that system. Sometimes I can clear up the issues by forcing a mode-switch, othertimes it requires I restart Xorg, othertimes a reboot is needed. I should note I gave up on it in late 2021, so things may have improved in that time.
