You are doing it wrong. If you are using Linux, use a window manager (sway or i3 are a good start). I'm running Archlinux with Nvidia and it's going great. No problems with the card, performance, and I have 3 screens of different DPI. I'm yet to try Bluetooth, though.

ps: If you are using an Nvidia card, you can't, unfortunately, use Wayland.

if it doesn't work out of the box, Linux is doing it wrong.

why should I have to install an os, then change my desktop environment, then spend weeks learning keyboard shortcuts for said new environment, to get basic functionality working.
