The online G15 5530 Drivers & Downloads page only shows Windows 11 and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS as supported operating system.

Ubuntu 22, yes.  For the distribution you're asking about, the user community of that OS would be a better place to ask.

It may work - but it may not work with a shipped distribution, in which case you should evaluate what might not work, or might take extensive effort to locate drivers for.

Thank you both for your responses. I consider myself a nerd as well, and would try to create drivers if they are not available.

I know this a way late response, but you might want to rethink the Arch Linux thing. Your best bet with the best support for most laptops to run Linux is Ubuntu and Linux Mint. Arch is for the tech-nerd in mind. Do some research on YT on all three distros. The videos are very informative.
