Today I got time to check about this.
Apparently, I already were using the amdgpu driver (as per the output of dmesg | egrep 'amdgpu|radeon' below) and I tried again with both the nw version from crosscode and from nwjs.io and nothing changed.
lspci -k gave the same output as the one in the archwiki because I have the exact same GPU (driver in use is amdgpu, and both radeon and amdgpu are loaded).
I haven’t tested with the radeon driver yet, but it’s pretty straightforward to do so if you think it’s worth it (I don’t want to reboot right now).
Ok, so maybe we could report a bug to either nwjs or chromium if we could narrow down the issue to something less specific to CrossCode and more about GPU acceleration on linux?
I don’t think it’s a great idea to set the burden of maintaining a compatibility list on the CrossCode side, especially when it’s so easy to get it working with Wine for now (it’s a bit sad to say, but it’s the current state of thing).
Thank you alot for your help and commitment in this issue, I greatly appreciate it @Nyaaori :-)

Would be worth trying to radeon driver too if you get the time, at least to collect info on if it works any different.
Also, if you have chromium, check chrome://gpu in it to see if it has hardware acceleration enabled on both drivers, if it doesn’t than perhaps nwjs is ignoring the built in compatibility table.
