   I am attempting to set up on popOS and not a single step I have done has gone smoothly. I think I would rather deal with codec issues and some reduced battery. This is not workable.

     @binkle @mischievoustomato Wayland runs like shit too. Flickering all over the place.

     @RustyCrab @mischievoustomato very bizarre - popos had none of these issues for me when debian/arch/fedora all failed me

     @mischievoustomato @binkle my only issue with fedora was poor battery life and very annoying codecs. I saw some stuff that made popOS look attractive but it's an enormous step backward.

     @mischievoustomato @binkle like I try disabling ipv6 and it doesn't work like it has absolutely everywhere else. I sort of find out why but that stuff is too dangerous to employ workarounds. I tried enabling their tiling window manager and it runs like shit. I tried installing some custom extensions for gnome and... well it's not working but I haven't looked too deep into why yet.

     @binkle @mischievoustomato the straw that broke the camels back for me just now is that it has no straightforward support for wireguard. It works AMAZINGLY on fedora and has full integration.
     
     I researched it on here and while technically possible to make it work 1) I do not want to take that risk with something unsupported for something mission critical 2) "oh just install this this this this this this and run a script on startup" nigga I don't want to have to open my hood and wind a crank every time I start my car
