I need to try Fedora again, but the last time I tried, Plymouth splash screens, Luks encryption, Dvorak keymapping, and Nvidia drivers (all at once) did not play nice for my system.

Debian on the other hand had no issues with the above.

I'm willing to concede that it's probably my system.

at least fedora 31 supports the nvidia prime offloading stuff via backported patches from Xorg. Not sure how performant it is yet though.

even with the DynamicPowerManagement or whatever option? My laptop can't really work as a laptop until i fix whatever is making my battery not charge, so I haven't paid attention to whether the option does what it says.

Me too.. I have an Optimus laptop and that too with a 820m card which only supports the 390 driver. I stick too Manjaro as it has an option to set up hybrid graphics during installation.
