I've been using the Wayfire window manager with an NVIDIA GPU and 2 monitors with different refresh rates and I don't encounter many issues. Rarely it'll still crash, but I've managed with this setup for around 6 months.
My next GPU will probably still be AMD though.
Similar experiance myself, but I've had multiple applications slow down, show major visual glitches or fail to run and when I make an issue on github or look it up in issues it's only happening on nvidia on wayland.
Still not as terrible as some say but not a great experiance
These glitches made me quit the nvidia+wayland combo, it was more prevalent in xWayland applications but it was bad, really bad, discord after some time was just chaotic stuff, it was frame 2 then frame 1, then frame 4, then frame 3, just bizarre.
Sorry I should've stated that I'm using Kwin, afaik gnome is a little better too but I didn't know that Wayfire was a thing until now.
