Everywhere Vulkan is a buggy mess

Im kinda getting jealous of all the people that say they can run Vulkan on their computers and phones and everytime I try to do so even though my hardware is compatible, things just never work right whenever I use Vulkan either on my phone and especially my desktop computer. On my Galaxy S7 the text in the UI is all smashed together which isn’t nearly as big of a problem as the UI on my desktop turns into chicken scratch that is so unreadable that I have to go back into the Retro Arch configuration file and there set the video driver back to GL. Am I the only one with this issue? Do I need to backdate my Nvidia driver? My GTX 650 does support Vulkan.
