Manjaro updated to it this past weekend. It's been an utter nightmare. It's not distro specific. The errors and issues are across almost all distros. If your distro does not allow you to stay on a stable driver (Read: Most rolling distros, but not all), or if you're forced to brute force drivers for something older in, beware.

I'm actually switching to Mint as a result of this, because Arch and Manjaro are fucky about maintaining "old" drivers

You should switch to AMD. Support has been far and away better than Nvidia. And it's out of the box. No fuckery with getting the driver installed. Updates come with a system update.

I want to, but I can't afford new hardware on a toilet cleaner salary, and the used market is very dry right now.

Understandable. I think I got my last GPU like 3 or 4 years ago, so not sure how the market has been going there.

new cards in the XX60 range for Nvidia, X600 range of AMD are around 300-350. Used market can get 1 or 2 gens prior for 250ish. I got my 2070 super used last year for 175
