UPDATE: Resolved, it was an issue caused by a faulty display port cable. Different issues from this cable had happened recently, I just initially assumed it was a software issue due to the fact that only GDM was affected.

It would work, but likely only as a temporary fix. Unless I intend to switch away from GNOME permanently, I’d be unable to lock my screen, since GNOME uses GDM specifically for screen locking.

Edited to include now

Will likely roll back in grub on the next boot. Thanks for reminding me I can do that

Logs, as in what shows up in journalctl? Also, when you suggest purging and reinstalling gdm, what issues are you saying I might run into?
