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.
This issue did not affect my previous laptop. However, under heavy load, my current laptop sometimes freezes and even REISUB sometimes failed to work. The only way is to force power off via button.
This persisted across all distros from Debian based to Fedora to current Void.
Other times, laptop will stutter to a near halt post some complex process and even after said process(like a Handbrake task) is closed, continues to act as if the resources were never freed.
I only used Windows 11 for a single month b/w 2016- current (other wise, distro hopping was default) and it was stable. I can’t pin point the actual root cause (driver issues, kernel level problem) but still persist with Linux (Windows has its own stuff of problems that we all are aware).
