How can I install non-free drivers on fedora like Debian and Ubuntu
The general answer is to enable the RPM Fusion repos. But that won’t automagically install the drivers for you, you’ll need to manually identify what’s needed and install them accordingly. This guide is a decent starting point: https://www.fosslinux.com/134505/how-to-install-key-drivers-on-your-fedora-system.htm
But also consider simply using a distro/spin that has all the drivers included (or automates the install), such as Nobara, or one of the Fedora Universal Blue distros.

Both Debian and Ubuntu come with nonfree firmware blobs by default. Nonfree drivers such as the Nvidia proprietary driver can be installed graphically in Ubuntu if you open the drivers app.
Debian instructions are here and involves adding the
non-free contribrepos to your/etc/apt/sources.listand then installing thenvidia-driverpackage
