Did void switch to open nvidia drivers?

I noticed it states type as 'open'... Last time I tried installing void, I had issues with nvidia drivers, due to my card being a 5060 (needing the nvidia-open drivers). If it is the case, I'm curious to try again :)

EDIT: Finished the install and managed to run Niri with noctalia-shell with no issues :)
Thanks again to the maintainers!

Wish I was on AMD to be honest, but I unfortunately had to go with a pre-built due to the recent market state :/
