Or a way worse touchpad experience. No swiping geastures. No smooth scrolling. FN-buttons not working. Or any other million issues. I have never been able to install Linux on a laptop and getting things to work within a weekend. And then reverting becuase I need my computer.

Run wayland instead of xorg… Also get better laptops.

> better laptops

The absolute best built laptops on the market right now don't come with Linux support...

That was kind of my point: we're still at a stage where checking a list of supported laptops and vendors is pretty much mandatory.

This is totally laptop vendors' fault, but that doesn't change the fact of the matter.

PS: it would be fine if there was a few good options in all categories. Right now I see nothing comparable to an Asus Z13 but with first class Linux support for instance.
