I have 1060, I bought it when it came out. Three years after that I completeny switched to Linux. There were some problems with it on rolling distributions. And I still cant figure out hardware acceleration in Firefox. It either doesn't work or it is baraly noticable from software acceleration. I still have a lot of skipped frames.

Try Nvidia vaapi driver! On arch you gotta make sure you setup hardware acceleration no matter what hardware your rocking.

I think Firefox defaults to Wayland now but you can check by going to about:support in Firefox and seeing if it's running in Wayland or XWayland. Hardware video acceleration isn't supported in XWayland as far as I can tell. I don't know about chrome you'll just half to look that up your self.
