    Yes, I have yet to have a zero-config experience even on vertical (but open) platforms like RasberryPi. What has been your experience?

    GPU, Sound, WiFi Day 0 / 1 / 365 are not yet on par with MacOS or Win11, for me, anyway.

    For me, it is important to recognize there is a larger time investment, otherwise how does it get better?

      @const_void
      Certainly, let’s look for more ways to improve, but I’ve not had a need to fiddle with hardware configs in a while.

      I count 2 personal laptops, a desktop, and a couple RasPis that just worked for me. One laptop had suspend issues in Windows that went away with Linux, which surprised the hell out of me.

      My work laptop (Windows 11) needed GPU drivers reinstalled and increasingly acts up with docking and suspend.

      Maybe I’ve lucked into good hardware or something.
