vulkan without proprietary drivers (lemmy.ml)

I've got an nvidia card and I don't want to use proprietary drivers cause they are completely broken for me, but I need vulkan for dxvk. I tried to install nvidia utils but that breaks my system. Where can I get nouveau vulkan?

Also I'm pretty sure NVK only works on 2000 series and up anyway, since Nvidia only released the blobs for those cards.

Basically, gotta deal with proprietary drivers until you eventually choose to upgrade the GPU in however many years, when you should probably choose AMD if running Linux is important to you. Nvidia as a company is just not friendly to the Linux world, and has never been friendly.
