    Unfortunately, from the issues I’ve had, it sounds like I’m reliant on Wayland if I want to be able to use two monitors with different refresh rates.

      Ah, well in any case, get those proprietary drivers installed, don’t wait for your package maintainer!

        Can I? I don’t know how and I was told before that I can’t update the driver on my own.

          Don’t, being among the first to install a new Nvidia driver version is a good way to get a system that doesn’t display anything after being rebooted. I would wait a week or two before installing them (basically when they land in your distros repositories)

            Thank you! If you don’t mind, when it does land on Bazzite, how will I know and how do I update it then?

              I have no idea about Bazzite but since it is based on Fedora Atomic, I would guess at around the same time as regular Fedora. I think realistically if there is a fix for the firefox issues under wayland, it should be there within 2-3 weeks
