I know my Pop!_OS install pulls Nvidia drivers and modules using flatpak. I don't know the pros and cons of this method, but I've assumed it's more robust due to decoupling of dependencies.

What is your opinion on flatpak vs pacman for proprietary Nvidia drivers?

I am philosophically against duplicating similar libraries, so I don't use flatpak. Insufferable, I know
