Is the FreeBDD driver open source? Also, somehow I was under the impression they stopped maintaining the FreeBSD driver. Is that correct?

> impression they stopped maintaining the FreeBSD driver.

It's maintained while simultaneously not receiving any new features.

Note this includes support for newer cards, so its only a matter of time before FreeBSD support is EOL'd

The latest FreeBSD driver is 450.66, published 2020-8-18. Supports RTX 20xx, GTX 16xx, GTX 10xx, and older.

New cards are fully supported. Why do you think they aren't?

They did. The proprietary NVIDIA driver is required on FreeBSD as well. The FreeBSD community just doesn't care about this.
