Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
Laptop OEMs seem to go with fingerprint readers that have no Linux support.
A number of distros out of the box have some IMO dumb things you need to change.
E.g. Fedora insisting on having their own Flatpak repository that isn’t as well-stocked or updated as Flathub, and missing audio/video codecs (I realise this is due to licensing concerns, but other distros get around it).
Yes, I know I can manually and painstakingly do a lot of this with Syncthing. It’s not the same. It’s a lot more time/effort and you need the knowledge to set it up.
